Ghana's nursing profession has been confronted with many challenges in recent times; the key among them is the issue of nursing brain drain as well as the huge number of unemployed graduate nurses. The trend of unemployed graduate nurses in the country has increased, contributing to Ghana's high graduate unemployment rate, hence the call for immediate government intervention to address the issue. Addressing the gathering during the graduation and matriculation ceremony of Rans Elliot School of Nursing in Koforidua, the Chief Executive Officer of the school, Rev. Dr. Ransford Kwabena Awuku-Gyampoh, stated that the continuous delay in posting nurses after passing their licensure exams will further deteriorate their skill set on the job.
