Regulation 2020: Exploration of the Present; Vision for the Future
Professional nursing regulation is seen as a central component of how the health and wellbeing of our societies can be achieved and the practice of the nursing profession assured. The time has come to view nursing regulation as part of a system that is seeking to find the right balance between the quality of services, access to those services and the costs of providing them. As a result a number of questions are raised about how regulation should be viewed now and in the future. Through development of a vision for the future, a framework is provided for the design and development of regulatory systems which will continue to meet the objectives of patient safety and public protection.
