Nigerian University Nursing Students Association expreses her disapproval over the recent review of the hazard allowance which excluded nursing internships.
And equally placed nursing internships on same salary with Dental therapist, Dietitians and lab scientists.
Nurses spent 5yrs in university with other medical professionals and we don't go on break from 200L.
It's either you are in school or hospital for clinicals.
Why must we be placed on the same salary with graduates from college of health?
This is very unfair and need to be addressed because it's killing the quality of health care delivery in Nigeria.
70% of nursing students in different schools are not willing to practice in Nigeria due to all this ill treatments.
