However, others think of this move as an expensive period of study. Many people may not continue their nursing career. If this happens, qualified nurses with degrees will feel overqualified when doing tasks like taking patients to the toilet. They will just feel too lowly. According to Ann Keen, the Health Minister, the degree requirement will be implemented by 2013. The standards developed by the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) will require the nurses to have an equivalent international qualification. If nurses will have more responsibility and training in the decision-making in clinical judgments hospitals can guarantee new nurses will convene the challenges of tomorrow.
