Advice : The young Nurses and determined older Nurses are implored to continue to advance themselves academically in order to still retain their relevance in Nursing.

We never had concrete advisers during our time thus the several delays we had. Education is difficult and will take chunks out of your savings but you can do it if you're determined, and you will be the better for it in the long run.
Wish you good luck in all your academic endeavours.

Enjoy a blessed morning
