NURSING CORE CURRICULUM REVISION IN ISRAEL: HISTORICAL REVIEW
NURSING CORE CURRICULUM REVISION IN ISRAEL: HISTORICAL REVIEW

Summary/Abstract: The Nursing Core Curriculum has been continually developed and revised in many countries over recent decades. These revisions are shaped mainly by social changes and challenges: for example, the forecast that the elderly will become a significant percentage of populations in developed countries, global migration processes, computerization of medical services, and new complex medical devices have all necessitated changes in the education of 21st century nurses. In Israel, nursing education has developed simultaneously under the influences of both the British versus the American core curricula through the last century. The latest Core Curriculum was published in 2012, and for the last three years, the Ministry of Health Nursing Administration have been working on the development of a new core. Meanwhile, all nursing education institutions are expected to implement de-facto changes which are supervised by the Ministry of Health’s audit tool development and inspection process.
