Mohammad Salem

This article sought to examine the contemporary challenges that affect nursing profession. The inquiry emanates
from the recent report published by the World Health Organization that indicted that the number of students enrolling
for nursing program has declined. Many other scholars have also identified that nurses faces many challenges
in their professional line of work which range from leadership to remuneration and risky work environment. Such
challenges continue to increase with the increasing health demands among many individuals and hence the need to
present an insight into the issue for improved healthcare system.
