= Nursing Around the World = Nursing is very different around the world than in the United States.Today we will be learning about four different countries and how nurses work. The countries we will be focusing on today are Nigeria, Scandinavia, Panama, and Belize. Nigeria is an African country on the gulf of new guinea. its full of numerous waterfalls and dense forest, the population is 186 million as of 2016 the area is 923,768 km². Due to Nigeria's constant population growth the densely populated area has many problem in the medical and financial area. It has been said that nursing is terrible in the country. The people of Nigeria have to suffer in the medical stand point everyday. The lack of correct medical care, the scarce medication, and uneducated doctors makes the medical field a nightmare. Nurses are inexperienced and don't know how to give correct medical care to people who are suffering with medical issues. this is pretty similar around the African continent.

The next nation i will be sharing is the united kingdom, the UK is a island nation made up of England, Scotland, wales, and northern Ireland. It is located in the north western region in Europe. Nursing here is pretty similar to the US, but they're are some small differences. For example in England healthcare is free but in the US you have to pay. in a way free healthcare is very beneficial because people with scarce amount of money can still get the health care they need and don't have to worry about the medical bills that come after. Nurses in the united kingdom are welly trained and are properly educated which is very different from Nigeria. Nurses also go through background checks but in places like Nigeria really anyone can become a nurse.

the last location i will be talking about is china. China is a very populated country on the eastern coast of Asia. unlike the UK china doesn't posses free health care. so citizens must undergo process to pay foe there treatment or buy health insurance. health care is extremely expensive and treatments are almost never covered completely by your insurance. nurses are very well instructed and educated, most have a bachelors degree(4 years) or a masters degree(1.5-2 years). there is quality nursing in china and patients are well treated.
