Health Care Providers

• Health care provision is delivered through the government or private sector; the two provide primary health care to clients for a fee. Growth in the health industry has increased demand for professional nurses. As employers, health care providers invest their own profits in programs for educating nurses. The institutions influence input on the training structures for nursing schools and give incentives to well-performing nurses.
  
  

Consumers

• Improved life expectancy is an attribute of an informed and healthy consumer. Clients of health care services, as key stakeholders, bring change through active involvement in nursing programs. The consumer demands quality services from medical practitioners and raises his concerns on standards of nursing programs.
  
  

Learning Institutions

• Education providers lay the groundwork for a career in nursing, teaching theory and sending students on practical assignments. Learning institutions are the coordinators of nursing programs and work closely with all stakeholders.
  
  

Student Nurse

• Evolving and growing health care systems require qualified managers in all fields. In the United States, a nursing reform proposal wants 80 percent of nurses to have a bachelor's degree by 2020. The student nurse, a central stakeholder, has to embrace the challenges of changing nursing programs.
