KUALA LUMPUR: Nine Health Ministry nursing training institutes (ILKKM) have closed this year and 10 more are set to stop operating by 2021, says Cuepacs.
Its president Datuk Azih Muda, who sounded the alarm yesterday, said diploma-level nursing programmes will also be phased out along with the closure of the 19 ILKKM.
