Rationalisation and Professionalisation: A Comparison of the Transfer of Registered Nurse Education to Higher Education in Australia and the UK.
Francis, Becky; Humphreys, John
Comparative Education, v35 n1 p81-96 Mar 1999
During the late 1980s, registered-nurse education moved from hospital-based training to higher education in both Australia and the United Kingdom. Differences in funding arrangements in the two countries can be explained by two separate movements impacting health care policy: the professionalization of nursing and economic rationalization. Contains 60 references. (Author/SV)
