Prioritising to safeguard the integrity of nurse education.
Whether there are enough practice placements and if they are of a high enough quality are questions that continue to come up and their resolution is vital for the future of the nursing workforce as a whole. In view of the vast increases in student numbers expected over the next few years, innovation, rather than traditional solutions, seems the only option. The priorities for future preregistration nurse education must therefore be clearly focused and integrated if the integrity of preregistration nursing is to be safeguarded.
