Given that some nurses are doing jobs that Drs used to do, running clinics, some performing minor surgery, think you'll find they they do need to be highly trained.Its not Carry on Nursing with bedpans any longer. The problem is that as it's been a female dominated profession, wages are low compared to other graduates, and they are just taken for granted.
Better prospects elsewhere for young people and the EU nurses are going to more welcoming countries who appreciate and pay them more.
