Distance nursing project set to take off
The University of the West Indies (UWI), in collaboration with Ryerson Universitys G. Raymond Chang School of Continuing Education, is to launch a state-of-the-art distance education nursing programme this month.
According to the Pan American Health Organisation (PAHO), approximately 35 per cent of nursing positions in the Caribbean go unfilled.
This shortage, PAHO said, is attributed in part to the high cost of learning, inaccessible learning institutions and brain drain.
