Nursing now being a degree level thing is a real problem too. It used to be something people went into straight from school and were trained on the job. It cost the country a lot less to have fully trained nurses by 17 or 18 rather than 21 and nobody was saddled with masses of debts. There was no real reason for the shift either. It was a political thing.
