Ordine delle Professioni Infermieristiche di ROMA

What Ordine delle Professioni Infermieristiche di ROMA does

Ordine delle Professioni Infermieristiche di ROMA (OPI Roma) is the statutory professional body that regulates nursing practice in Rome province, established under Italian law (D.Lgs C.P.S. 233/1946 and Law 3/2018) and operating under the national federation FNOPI. It maintains the official registry of nurses authorized to practice in the province, administers disciplinary proceedings, and issues enrollment, transfer, and cancellation certificates. Membership is legally mandatory for all practicing nurses in the province. The organization serves registered nurses as its primary constituency, with secondary services for citizens seeking to verify credentials and for freelance nurses requiring parere di congruità on professional fees.

OPI Roma operates a digital platform stack including the SPID-authenticated member portal (portal.opi.roma.it), the BeeGAP membership management system, the Sail-Educa ECM (continuing medical education) platform, the WhistleblowingPA encrypted reporting system, and the CECRI IT platform supporting nursing research workflow. It maintains dual ISO certifications (9001:2015 for quality management, 37001:2016 for anti-bribery), provides free certified email (PEC) to all registered members, and operates a physical and digital library with Elsevier, Wiley, EBSCOhost, and Ovid database access. The CECRI research center is affiliated with the Joanna Briggs Institute, and the Order publishes the peer-reviewed scientific journal 'Infermiere Oggi' (since 2002).

The organization's revenue model is based on mandatory annual membership fees (tassa di iscrizione) collected from registered nurses, with ancillary revenue from public procurement contracts (cleaning, IT support, library, accounting, press services) — specific fee amounts are not publicly disclosed. OPI Roma partners with four major Roman universities (Sapienza, Cattolica, Tor Vergata, Campus Biomedico) for nursing education programs and operates community initiatives such as 'Spiagge Serene' (beach health advisory). The Order is governed by a Consiglio Direttivo and Collegio dei Revisori, and is subject to ANAC oversight for public procurement transparency.

Direct peers

• OPI Milano (Ordine delle Professioni Infermieristiche di Milano): Provincial nursing order serving nurses in Milan, operating under the same Italian statutory framework as OPI Roma with an identical mandate, ECM administration, and member portal structure — the closest organizational peer.
• Ordine dei Farmacisti di Roma: Provincial statutory professional order for pharmacists in Rome, organized under analogous Italian law with identical public-sector transparency, anti-corruption, and registration functions as OPI Roma.
• FNOPI (Federazione Nazionale Ordini Professioni Infermieristiche): National federation that coordinates all provincial Italian nursing orders including OPI Roma. Directly comparable: same statutory basis (D.Lgs C.P.S. 233/1946, L. 3/2018), same regulatory mandate, and OPI Roma is an explicit subordinate member under FNOPI's framework.
• OPI Napoli: Another large provincial Italian nursing order, sharing the OPI legal form, FNOPI membership, and ECM/member service model — a useful peer for benchmarking scale and digital service delivery.
• Ordine dei Medici Chirurghi e Odontoiatri di Roma: Statutory provincial professional order for physicians in Rome under the same Italian legal framework as OPI Roma. Comparable in mandate, governance structure, public-sector compliance burden, and member service portfolio.
• Ordine degli Avvocati di Roma: Statutory provincial professional order for lawyers in Rome under identical Italian legal architecture. Compares directly on governance, transparency obligations, and member service structure, useful for benchmarking administrative efficiency.

Others

• CIVES (Comitato Infermieri Volontari Emergenza Sanitaria): National association of volunteer nurses for emergency healthcare, partnered with OPI Roma. Not a regulatory peer but a thematically adjacent ecosystem organization operating within the same Italian nursing community.

Broad incumbents

• California Board of Registered Nursing: US state-level statutory regulator for nurses, performing license registration, discipline, and continuing education oversight. Mirrors the regulatory function OPI Roma performs within the narrower Rome province scope.
• Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA): National agency supporting 15 health profession boards in Australia including the Nursing and Midwifery Board. Provides a comparable model of consolidated, multi-profession health practitioner regulation that informs the trajectory of Italian professional orders.
• Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC, UK): UK statutory regulator for nurses and midwives. Operates at national scale with comparable registration, fitness-to-practice, and revalidation functions, making it a structural analog to the consolidated FNOPI-plus-provincial model that Italian reform could move toward.
