Nursing is one profession that requires student in high quantity because as the population of the world continues to grow, more nursing services would be required to take care of the sick and the vulnerable. The growing violence in the world is also putting a strain on the number of nurses required to cater for the injured.
Sadly, the number of students willing to take up nursing courses continues to decline at a fast rate. Added to this, there is a burdening regulation on nursing institutes that makes expansion of nursing schools almost impossible.
