University offering disaster nursing course opens in quake-hit region

Better yet, train them as paramedics....there are too few of them in this country!

Send young nurses to a contaminated region, train them. Then send young nurses to the contaminated region to treat the contaminated young nurses who were trained. Then send young nurses to train to treat the young nurses who were trained to treat the young nurses....

@yubaru agree - paramedics are also much more useful than doctors in emergency situations, with their simpler, more practical focus. Let the docs do triage and work downstream.

Another university? The last thing this country needs, with it's diluted courses and plunging population. I agree, they need properly trained paramedics.
