Unshakeable confidence in nursing and midwifery care

Review the new resources for

​prescribing

As a reminder, Registered Midwives Medications and Substances: Standards, Limits and Conditions came into effect March 1, 2023. To support you with prescribing, we've updated our resource centre with additional information about dispensing as well as a few more FAQs. Find out more about dispensing with a pharmacist's involvement, dispensing without a pharmacist's involvement, documentation, and client-specific orders.

Have you watched the cultural safety & humility videos?

To help nurses and midwives understand and apply the Indigenous Cultural Safety, Cultural Humility and Anti-Racism practice standard, BCCNM collaborated with the College of Physicians and Surgeons of BC on a series of videos. This month, we're highlighting the video "Building knowledge through education".

We offer practice consultation services

If you're looking for help identifying, understanding, and applying BCCNM standards of practice or other regulatory considerations, our Regulatory Practice Consultants can help. Simply email practice@bccnm.ca.
