Building on earlier work, this paper describes a coordinated and systematic method for identifying priorities for nursing development within a field of practice. The nursing contribution in stroke care serves as a case study, the primary aim of which was to establish priorities for research and development in stroke care from a nursing perspective. The initiative was a partnership between the Royal College of Nursing and the Stroke Association, supported by the Royal College of Physicians.
