Student nurse pilot
|
|
The pilot England, for potential student nurses to work paid, for 1 year on a hospital ward, prior to training, has commenced. It involves 200 "students" in 6 health districts (HEE ). There are still many doubts raised about this, especially by the RCN . It does offer the potential however, to ensure people are prepared for the "real nursing". It may though, influence further developments on nurse education. Many countries seek an alternative to a full nursing degree in order to reduce costs. Yet the degree itself, is indicated as being anadequate (Future Forum 2012).

So quiet re this isn't it? Note- the project is being overseen by "expert nurses" according to news reports ( https://hee.nhs.uk/.../top-nurses-to-oversee-pilots 5.5.2013 )- the three linked main bodies in nursing- RCN (who actually represent under half of UK nurses), CQC, and NMC. Odd, the RCN opposed the idea initially- they do so go with the flow to gain members. Concerns- private sector again neglected, students ever more prepared solely for NHS which will eventually, not exist. May signify the end of the 3 year degree, which Inadequately prepares students anyway. Is everybody asleep with this and other issues?
