Incidentally, a nursing degree in France is 3 years. A 4 year’s bachelor’s + a two-year master’s for a nurse is insane. US credentialism is demented. https://twitter.com/GallopingGaye/status/1446458107102736388 …

there are variations, it depends on the specific branch of nursing goes from 2 year ADN programs up to nurse practitioners who are local to MDs as i understand it

Correct me if I’m wrong but it’s just that you need these degrees to get promotions/money, like in the ed system, it’s pure credentialing. There are PhDs in nursing!

not quite like that--believe they actually fulfill different hospital roles. ive not worked in such but consider differences in skill between eg changing bedpans vs nurse anesthetists managing anesthesia during a surgery or NPs operating independently

again im sure there's a bunch of credentialism involved, just skeptical its pure credentialism in this case

nursing phds are a separate issue, they have all the usual issues with phd programs, but typically they're not intended for practitioners afaik
