Petition Implement compulsory education on the NHS and nursing careers, into UK schools

More details

We should be encouraging the youth of this nation to take up a career in nursing in order to help handle the national staff shortages. This can be met by giving seminars on the NHS and nursing careers in schools. Most students upon leaving school are completely unaware of the different types of nurses, the rewarding challenges involved, the pay and job security. All these factors are essential when choosing a career, but we are missing a trick. We need to educate.
