Temporary emergency registration enables eligible individuals to register quickly on a short-term basis to assist with emergency health-care response in B.C. During the COVID-19 pandemic and B.C. wildfires, BCCNM granted temporary emergency registration to eligible individuals to assist with pandemic and wildfire efforts.

Practising registrants in B.C. do not need temporary emergency registration.

Type of work allowed​​

Temporary emergency registration was available for the sole purpose of enabling eligible individuals to assist during a declared emergency. Temporary emergency registrants assisted in responding to the COVID-19 pandemic and B.C. wildfires by: 

  • Providing care that was directly related to the pandemic; or
  • Temporarily covering positions vacated by midwives/nurses who have been redeployed to deal with the emergency.
