On Dec. 11, 2024, a panel of the Inquiry Committee approved a consent agreement between BCCNM and Jody Furness of Oliver to address practice issues that occurred in May 2022 related to working at another facility while on leave from her employer and working while not fit to practice.
The registrant has voluntarily agreed to terms equivalent to a limit and/or condition on their practice, including:
a. A suspension of their nursing registration for seven days;
b. A public reprimand; and
c. Remedial education on ethics and upholding the professional standard, responsibility and accountability.
The Inquiry Committee is satisfied that the terms will protect the public.
