title: Methods of nurse selection: a review.
abstract: The trauma and horror of the Beverley Allitt case, and others, have forced the issue of selection of prospective nurses back to the top of the agenda. In this article, the author criticises current selection procedures, then outlines some of the various psychological and intelligence tests which could, he claims, make selection a more objective and reliable process.
