Nurse Prescribing
In 2007 the Minister for Health and Children introduced legislation allowing nurses and midwives in certain circumstances and subject to certain criteria to be allowed prescriptive authority. In 2007 the first education programmes preparing nurses and midwives for this new role began at RCSI and to date we have offered 3 programmes per year beginning in January, April and October, funded by the HSE through the Office of the Nursing Services Director.
