The study of nursing focuses on prevention of illnesses and injuries, care of patients of all ages and the promotion of health. This subject is useful for anyone who wishes to be a nurse at hospitals, clinics, assisted living centers or other health institutions.

Norway (Norge) is the westernmost, northernmost — and in fact the easternmost — of the three Scandinavian countries. Norway is well known for its amazing and varied scenery. The fjords in the west of the country are long narrow inlets, flanked on either side by tall mountains where the sea penetrates far inland. The ultimate responsibility for the education lies with the Norwegian Ministry of Education and Research.
