Details

The Nurses Board of the Australian Capital Territory was a State Nurse Regulatory Authority established by section 6 of the Nurses' Act 1988. The Board administered the Act which provided for the registration and enrollment of nurses, the supervision of nursing education and standards and for related purposes. The Board had the responsibility for approving the registration or enrollment of suitably qualified nurses who wished to practice in the Territory as well as monitoring safe practice by those persons. The Board is now known as the ACT Nursing and Midwifery Board
