Staffing and education of nurses and hospital mortality in Europe? Authors' reply
Hospital mortality varies substantially within European countries. Our paper1 provides scientific evidence that failure to standardise nursing education at the bachelor's level puts patients at higher risk of dying after common surgeries. We concur with Rele Ologunde that it is alarming that formal bachelor's qualifications are yet to be universally implemented in nursing

Our paper1 provides scientific evidence that failure to standardise nursing education at the bachelor's level puts patients at higher risk of dying after common surgeries. We concur with Rele Ologunde that it is alarming that formal bachelor's qualifications are yet to be universally implemented in nursing
