Nursing Care In Australia

The quality of healthcare provided to any given country, whether it is from its own systematic government or byproduct of foreign aid, will almost always be determined by the contextual situations of that country. For Australians a reasonable quality of healthcare funded by our government though taxpayers, provides a comfortable assurance that should one become ill or infirmed they would not incur any major out of pocket expenses. However as Australia is most frequently termed the lucky country we must delve deeper into why Australia holds some of the best nursing care in the world. Not always is basic medical healthcare and education provided to the citizens of populaces, most notably to those that are, or previously have, engaged with either

A long-standing concern is the chronic shortage of well-prepared nurses at a proper academic/university level, a problem that is most obviously exacerbated by the difficulties in recruiting qualified women into nursing due to social and cultural barriers. This is coupled with the perceived low status of the profession and further exacerbated by the troubled professional relationship of female nurses and male doctors due to cultural and religious reasoning’s.
