Summary: | This article describes the use of a Policy Delphi to explore the options for restructuring the regulatory body for nursing in South Africa.

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. |
