Introduction: Training experienced and qualified nursing staff to provide health care is an essential and evident issue that requires the improvement of education quality. Comparison of different education systems improves the content and quality of the curriculum. This study aimed to compare the undergraduate nursing education system in Iran and Rajiv Gandhi University in India.
Methods: This descriptive-comparative study was conducted in 2020 to compare the undergraduate nursing curriculum in Iran and Rajiv Gandhi University of India. The Bready model was used to compare the two curricula.
Results: Some salient features, including strengthening studentschr('39') teamwork and self-directed learning skills and library work were evident in the curriculum of the Rajiv Gandhi University of India. Graduates in India are not allowed to work without an RN license; however, in Iran, they can start working after graduation.
Conclusion: The nursing education system in Iran and the Rajiv Gandhi University of India bear much of a resemblance. It is recommended that in Iran, studentschr('39') teamwork and self-directed learning skills be taken into close consideration, and a professional competency test of graduates be held before employment. |
