Do you know how to become a nurse?
"I know!", "I don't know!", "I want to know!"In fact, I didn't know the details even when I was choosing my career path in high school.
Nursing jobs include public health nurses, midwives, nurses, and assistant nurses.
This time, I will introduce you to the course to become a nurse.
There are two courses to become a nurse: after graduating from junior high school, you can proceed to an assistant nurse training school, and after high school, you can proceed to a nursing school or nursing college (Fig. XNUMX).
In order to become a nurse, it is necessary to receive the education required by law at various educational institutions, pass the national nursing examination, and obtain a license.In addition, the educational content for becoming a nurse is stipulated in the designated regulations for public health nurses, midwives, and nurses, so the quality of the educational content is guaranteed regardless of which course you choose.
The number of four-year nursing colleges established nationwide was 2002 (167%) in 8.7, and 2018 (263%) in 24.7. In recent years, the number of universities offering nurse education is increasing (as of May 2018).Nursing colleges and university nursing departments offer credits for nursing as well as elective subjects, and upon graduation, you can take either qualifications such as public health nurse or midwife exam qualifications, nursing teacher, etc.It is a good idea to research the characteristics of each educational institution, think about your future, and choose the course and educational institution that suit you.
