In terms of nursing, the Division is authorized to set, upgrade, and audit professional standards; create new specialties; formulate, oversee and accredit educational programs, and register nurses. In terms of broad policy, it has a voice in shaping general health priorities and resource allocation. To expand evidencebased policy, it has established a Research Department, which will examine health policy decisions in light of scientific evidence.
