In any description of nursing in Africa, one must consider the continent's vast size and complexity of cultures. Even the concept of nursing does not have the same meaning in all African countries. Below, Osei-Boateng updates the status of African nurses, derived from her paper that appeared in the 10th anniversary brochure of the West African College of Nursing (WACN). To simplify the analysis, she focuses only on the region south of the Sahara--excluding South Africa--in her overview of the slow progress and vast education needs of nurses caught in the web of their countries' socioeconomic and political chaos ... and lethargy.
在任何对非洲护理工作的描述中，都必须考虑到这片大陆幅员辽阔且文化复杂。甚至护理的概念在所有非洲国家都没有相同的含义。以下内容中，奥塞-博阿滕更新了非洲护士的现状，这些内容源自她发表在西非护理学院（WACN）十周年纪念手册上的论文。为了简化分析，她在概述陷入本国社会经济和政治混乱……以及慵懒困境中的护士进展缓慢和教育需求巨大的情况时，仅聚焦于撒哈拉以南地区——不包括南非。
