Debate over nurses’ role in medical care has turned partisan after passage of new law without ruling party support

The Korea Nurses Association (KNA) maintains that the Nursing Act will improve health care by expanding when and where nurses can provide medical care. This may be particularly important for South Korea’s rapidly aging and rural population.
