<![CDATA[One part of the health workforce is nursing staff. Nursing staff who have graduated from a bachelor's degree and have not yet completed professional nursing education can only work in administrative services. In fact, hospitals allow them to provide professional services to patients. This is certainly not in accordance with the provisions of Law Number 17 of 2023 concerning Health, Article 212 of which stipulates that health workers with a bachelor's degree must undergo professional education to be able to practice professionally in health care facilities. Then in Government Regulation Number 28 of 2024 concerning the Implementation of Law Number 17 of 2023 concerning Health, health workers are given a maximum of five years from the enactment of this Government Regulation. The implementation of this regulation means that nursing staff who do not fulfill their professional education obligations will lose their jobs, and nursing staff who continue their professional education need educational financial assistance from the agency. This study uses an empirical legal research method with a legislative and conceptual approach. Data analysis was carried out by collecting library data and field research results. The results of the research that has been conducted show that many nurses have not completed professional education but provide professional health services in hospitals. Nursing staff with civil servant status, in adapting to professional education, can be facilitated with study assignments, either through independent study or scholarship funding. This differs from government employees with contract agreements, who cannot be facilitated with study assignments.]]>
