Policy Options for a Regulatory Body for Nursing in South Africa

Department of Nursing, University of Natal, Private Bag X10, Dalbridge, South Africa

This article describes the use of a Policy Delphi to explore the options for restructuring the regulatory body for nursing in South Africa. Two rounds using postal questionnaires were used, the second of which also included group interviews. Aspects such as the statutory home of the body, its structure, who should appoint or elect members, and its composition, were explored. To a large extent, there was agreement on many issues. It would seem that this approach to consulting the profession is a profitable one, which informs while it consults.
