If you are considering to reading Nursing or its related field, I would encourage you to do so.
However, these days Nurses in Ghana have been treated badly owing to bad salaries
As a result of this, Nurses mostly resort to strikes to agitate for salary increment
We cannot deny that nurses have had a hard time in the last few years in Ghana as we have seen them carry out strike upon strike just so their wages can be improved upon.
This leaves us to wonder how much the salaries of nurses in Ghana is really about.
