An Bord Altranais

An Bord Altranais (Irish pronunciation: [an̪ˠ bˠoːɾˠd̪ˠ ˈl̪ˠt̪ˠɾˠən̪ˠaʃ], meaning "Irish Nursing Board") is the statutory body that regulates the nursing and midwifery profession in Ireland. It provides for the registration, control and education of nurses. It holds a register of nurses and midwives, who having undergone the appropriate education, may practice as such. It can also remove nurses and midwives from the register if they are proven to be unfit to practice.
