NATIONAL Nursing Association head Idi Stuart said Trinidad and Tobago has the worst pass rate in the entire Caribbean when it comes to CXC's Regional Examination for Nurse Registration.
Speaking following the opening of the National Nurses Credit Union Co-operative Society Limited at Warren Street in Curepe on May 13, Stuart said, “We have a high failure rate of nursing personnel – more than 50 per cent.
"That is causing a big problem. Nurses have to study and learn almost everything doctors do, except possibly how to do the surgery, in order to be able to catch any errors that are made.”
