Fung, Cynthia, RN

Consent agreement

May 22, 2025

On May 22, 2025, a panel of the Inquiry Committee approved a consent agreement between BCCNM and Cynthia Fung of Surrey to address practice issues that occurred on April 10, 2024, related to granting a pass to a client contrary to the physician's order.

Nurses are accountable to ensure they meet BCCNM practice and professional standards as well as meet the employer's policies for providing safe nursing care to clients. When there is a client specific order, nurses must ensure that their practice is in accordance with the order. A client-specific order is an instruction or authorization given by a regulated health professional for a nurse to provide care for a specific client, whether or not the care or service includes a restricted activity or a non-restricted activity. 

The registrant has voluntarily agreed to terms equivalent to a limit and/or condition on their practice, including:

    1. ​A reprimand and a suspension of their registration for five days.

​The Inquiry Committee is satisfied that the terms will address the professional and practice concerns that arose and will protect the public.
