Theoretical mode
As the government and opposition now recognise,the once practical nature of nurse education has been usurped by theoretical mode of education. Nurse education has replaced nurse training. For many, in essence, a vocation: "After all, nursing is a vocation, is it not? " That this is now questionable is related to the fragmentation of the tradition. The problem with nursing is that it has become divorced from its vocational tradition, and the realisation has dawned that there needs now to be a reformation.
There is an alternative which builds on nursing tradition, and by recovering its purpose could revive its core values. Hospitals, as large health care institutions, could again consider providing nurse training to a recognisable standard of qualification and registration, as they have done in the past. Clinical experts, including physicians, surgeons, psychiatrists, senior clinical nurses, social workers, physiotherapists, dietitians and occupational therapists, could teach nurses. Nurses could learn in the classroom in sandwich-type courses, and on the wards and in community health centres, which might also contribute learning expertise. As with the Nightingale tradition, the objective would be pracitical, the learning of skil, procedure and technique, together with intellectual and technical knowledge relevant to the clinical context and patients' conditions.
