Most professions have an entry level of a bachelors degree of higher. The profession of nurses is confusing to the public, as a nurse can be someone with 10 months of education, or someone with a phD.

It is also confusing for nurses, in some facilities, LPN's are allowed to preform duties that they cannot in other facilities.

What should the entry level for the practice of nursing be in your opinion?
