Today, the professional nurse must be educated to respond to and manage the present and forecasted advances in the health system. They must be innovative, analytical and articulate, which cannot be taught using the traditional apprenticeship methods. Nursing workforce development must of necessity be broad in scope to encompass the socioeconomic, political and health system changes. These changes and trends significantly affect nursing generally, and nursing education specifically.
