MAY 2023

Unshakeable confidence in nursing and midwifery care

BCCNM's 2022 Annual Report

Celebrating nurses

This year, we celebrate Nursing Week from May 8-14 with the theme #OurNursesOurFuture. As Canada’s largest group of health-care professionals, we recognize the fundamental role that nurses play. From advocating for the most vulnerable among us, to conducting innovative research to help shape public policy, nurses contribute to every aspect of our health-care system.

You make a difference in the lives of patients, clients, and their families. Thank you for all you do to support the physical and mental health of British Columbians.

Sharing the results of BCCNM's complaints process review

We are pleased to release the final report, which has recommendations for three broad areas: process changes, establishing relationships, and mandatory learning.

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 on creating safe health-care experiences.
