The Democratic Nursing Organisation of South Africa is a trade union in South Africa that describes itself as "a voluntary organisation for South African nurses and midwifery professionals".[2]

It was established in its current form on 5 December 1996.[3]

It is an affiliate of the Congress of South African Trade Unions and became a full member of the International Council of Nurses on 15 June 1997. The union suspended its participation in the leadership structures of the congress on 10 November 2014 as a result of the federations expulsion of the National Union of Metalworkers of South Africa on 7 November 2014.[4]

At its 2010 congress, the organisation passed a resolution that the National Executive Committee should proceed with the merger with the South African Democratic Nurses' Union.[3]

It has set up numerous projects with the aim of improving healthcare in South Africa. These mainly consist of workshops to educate nurses on HIV/AIDS and multi-drug-resistant tuberculosis[5]
