Malloch, Susan, RN

Consent agreement

Jan 12, 2021

​On January 12, 2021, a panel of the Inquiry Committee approved a Consent Agreement between BCCNM and Susan Malloch of Mill Bay, BC, to remediate practice issues that occurred in May 2020 related to administering a nebulizer to a client absent a physician order and against recommendations made to long term care facilities that nebulizers not be used unless N95 masks are available; and, restraining a client in their room by tying a tensor bandage to the doorknob of the client's room and securing it to a lift outside of the client's room, effectively placing the client in seclusion.

The Registrant has voluntarily agreed to terms equivalent to a condition on practice, including: a three-day suspension of her certificate of registration, completing remedial courses and a referral to a Regulatory Practice Consultant at BCCNM.

The Inquiry Committee is satisfied that the terms will protect the public.
