Abstract

Description

Despite political support for the baccalaureate degree as entry to practice, historical concerns over nursing education - the value of education versus service, professional versus vocational identity and theoretical versus practical knowledge - persist. The authors challenge the notion of a \"two-tiered\" nursing system and call for a nationwide curriculum review to help the profession adapt to the changing needs of the Canadian healthcare system.
