Society, as a dynamic entity, undergoes changes at the cultural, social, economic, and political level. Therefore health care must adapt to them, meeting the new needs that may arise. The objective of this research is to analyze the health and social needs presented by the population today and to determine whether or not to include new subjects in a future Nursing Degree from the University of Valladolid, Spain to respond to these. Key aspects that make up the health and social context will be analyzed. This way, the demographic profile of Spanish society; an aging population, caring for dependent persons, the state of health of the population, domestic violence, voluntary interruption of pregnancy and sexual and reproductive health, as well as cultural diversity of Spain and the immigration process, will be studied. Additionally, nurse orders, recently adopted competencies, and general study skills that a nurse must have will be analyzed.
