HND Nursing And Midwifery Or B.sc Nursing by nikky5(op): 3:50am On May 10, 2024
My daughter needs your advice on this. What are the merits over your preference between the two considering the existing dichotomy between HND and B.Sc in Nigeria. Thanks and God bless.

tell him to re-write. I wish I had done that years ago, my friends are now RN and relocated to Canada USA and uk. It’s worth it if you can try, I won’t recommend HND in midwifery.

Sir please what's the difference between nursing and midwifery or they're joined together just like electrical and electronic engineering, or nursing is different... midwifery is also different

Nigerian army college of nursing should offer hnd (not sure) only a university offers bsc and RN makes them registered nurses. In a nursing career, I will suggest a BSc

I’m female, midwifery is a niche in nursing just like public health, mental health and co.

Sorry for the incessant questions

Well, HND nursing is what you get when you graduate from Schools of nursing nowadays. BSc is the degree you get when you graduate from a university.

Both makes you a qualified nurse. Either both, you get to sit for the RN exam which makes you a nurse. The difference is that during employment, a Bsc Nursing "MAY" be placed higher than HND Nursing. Emphasis on "may". Also, should the graduate choose to go for masters degree, the one with Bsc will be able to directly do masters degree in Nigeria. Of course, some western countries allow you to do masters degree directly with HND.

All the very best to your daughter.
