The key trends that may emerge over the next ten years are related to the socioeconomic and political environments, the health and care sectors, health and social care regulation, the nursing, and midwifery sectors, as well as education and provision of training for nurses and health care personnel. assistants These changes will affect the way nurses deliver care in various health and social care settings.
