Subject: RE: BS: Why do all nurses need to have a degree?
Yes I understand that Becca.

So long as there are openings for many people who want to care and look after people who are ill, which doesn't need a degree, but does need common sense and rolling the sleeves up and getting on with it.

There are many people acting as carers for their beloved ones, who probably don't have any skills in the nursing side, but look after them with loving care and get a pittance. We need more of those sort otherwise we will end up with a top heavy organisation. The pen pushers and the doers.

I wonder wether we should make all carers get a degree before they can care for their beloved.
