On April 3, 2024, a panel of the Inquiry Committee approved a consent agreement between BCCNM and Anna Fronek of Surrey to address practice issues that occurred between May 28, 2022, and April 21, 2023, related to the registrant's failure to provide basic nursing care, including regular toileting in a timely and compassionate manner, failure to speak to patients and their family members in a professional manner, and failure to administer medications in compliance with the BCCNM medication administration standards.
The registrant has voluntarily agreed to terms equivalent to a limit and/or condition on their practice, including:
A reprimand and a suspension of their nursing registration for four weeks.
A limit to be employed by only one employer and not to provide regulatory oversight for nursing students or orientate new staff to the workplace.
Remedial education in ethics, professional responsibility and accountability, and client-centred care.
Developing a learning plan to address her learning needs.
The Inquiry Committee is satisfied that the terms will protect the public.
