What did the Lysaught report emphasize?

• A. Increase hospital control over nursing education
• B. Encourage nurse practitioner roles in primary care
• C. RESEARCH for both practice and education; recommend supply/demand of nurses and their functions and practice/curriculum development
• D. Expand nursing assistant training in community clinics

Answer: (C)

The question centers on the idea that the Lysaught report urged using research to guide both nursing education and nursing practice, while also planning for nurse supply and demand and aligning what nurses do with how they are educated. It emphasizes building a strong evidence base to inform curricula development and practice standards, so that education prepares nurses for actual workforce needs and practice settings generate data to refine both education and roles. This integrated, data-driven approach distinguishes the report from options that focus on governance by hospitals, specific new roles in primary care, or nursing assistant training, which are not the report’s core emphasis.
