Tenta, Lorna, LPN

Consent agreement

Mar 4, 2021

​On March 4, 2021, a panel of the Inquiry Committee approved a Consent Agreement between BCCNM and Lorna Tenta of Abbotsford, BC, to remediate practice issues that occurred between May 2019 to June 2020 related to medication administration, assessments, documentation, clinical decision-making and critical thinking skills.

The Registrant has voluntarily agreed to terms equivalent to a condition and limits on their practice, including: A condition to not return to nursing practice until successful completion of remedial education up to and including a consolidated practicum, followed by a limit to undergo an extension orientation, a 3-month period of mentorship, to develop and complete a comprehensive learning plan, and undergo a Regulatory Practice Consultation. Additionally, the Registrant has agreed to a Reprimand resulting from their conduct of on more than one occasion, practicing out of scope by administering and/or withholding medications without an order and on several occasions, failing to follow documentation standards when documenting that medication was administered when it was not.

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