Section 117 does not authorise or require a local social services authority ..., in or in connection with the provision of services under that section, to provide or arrange for the provision of nursing care by a registered nurse.
In this section "nursing care by a registered nurse" means a service provided by a registered nurse involving—
the provision of care, or
the planning, supervision or delegation of the provision of care,
other than a service which, having regard to its nature and the circumstances in which it is provided, does not need to be provided by a registered nurse.
