Abstract
With the intensifying aging of the population, the increasing burden of chronic diseases, and the diversification of health needs, lifelong health services have become the core objective of modern healthcare systems. As a critical component of health service talent cultivation, nursing education faces new challenges and opportunities. Based on the core of lifelong health services and their new requirements for nursing education, this article explores the current difficulties and issues in nursing education. Accordingly, it proposes reform strategies and exploration directions for nursing education in the context of lifelong health services, such as constructing an integrated curriculum system that breaks the segmentation of the life cycle, innovating the “scenario-practice” teaching model to strengthen capability development, and building a “dual-qualified and interdisciplinary” teaching team to enhance teaching transformation capabilities. The aim is to cultivate “warm, capable, and responsible” nursing talents for the Healthy China strategy in the new era.
