NANDA International History


	1973 - Present NANDA (North American Nursing Diagnosis Association) was founded in 1982. The organization grew out of the National Conference Group, a task force established in 1973, at the First National Conference on the Classification of Nursing Diagnoses, held in St. Louis, Missouri, USA. In 2002, NANDA became NANDA International (NANDA-I) to reflect increasing worldwide interest in the field of nursing diagnosis terminology. NANDA International has approved more than 200 nursing diagnoses for clinical use, testing and refinement.
