What are the outstanding problems in nursing education?
1, the construction of nursing team is a fundamental issue related to the development of nursing career. At present, the overall level of nurses is obviously insufficient in terms of quantity, professional quality and knowledge structure, which is manifested in the following aspects: first, there is a lack of legal protection of nurses' rights and interests and legal management of nurses' access, and incidents that infringe on nurses' rights and interests occur from time to time, and the problem of entering the nursing team to engage in nursing technical work without formal nursing professional training is more prominent in some areas; Second, there is a shortage of nurses in nursing posts in medical institutions, and the proportion of doctors and nurses has declined year after year. According to the statistical data collected by the Medical Education Network of the Statistical Center of the Ministry of Health, the ratio of doctors and nurses was 1:2.28 in 0952, and it dropped to 1: 1.09 in 2003. The ratio of nurses to beds in the recently investigated 126 general hospitals is only 0.33: 1 on average, which can't meet the requirements of the Ministry of Health 1978 "Organizational Principles of General Hospitals" and "Basic Standards of Medical Institutions", and the number of nurses in some hospitals is more than double that of existing nurses. Third, the overall quality of nurses is low, and there is a gap between the knowledge structure, professional quality, technical level and ability and the development of medical technology and the diversified health service needs of the people. Medical accidents caused by nurses' professional skills often occur; Fourthly, there is a lack of rational planning and scientific management of nurse human resources. Compared with clinical medicine, the professional development of nurses is relatively backward, and the subject leaders of nursing specialty are insufficient.

2. Developing nursing education is the basis of training high-level nurses. Since the reform and opening up, China's nursing education has made great progress, but there is still a gap with the development of social economy, medicine and nursing specialty, which is manifested in the following aspects: first, the hierarchical structure of nursing education needs further adjustment and optimization; Second, the quality of nursing teaching needs to be improved; Third, there is a lack of systematic and standardized post-graduation education and continuing education for nurses; Fourth, nurses in specialized nursing posts and nursing management posts lack standardized training.
