JUNE 2025

Scope of Practice Standards, Limits, and Conditions: Same content, new format, new learning modules

Effective June 2, 2025, the scope of practice documents for LPNs, RNs, and RPNs are now stand-alone practice standards and supporting learning resources. Two new modules – Legislation and nursing regulations and BCCNM explained: Our role and responsibility – are available to provide foundational information through engaging, interactive exercises. Previous videos sharing this information have been removed as they were out of date.

We acknowledge the rights and title of the First Nations on whose collective unceded territories encompass the land base colonially known as British Columbia. We give specific thanks to the hən̓q̓əmin̓əm̓ speaking peoples the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) and sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations and the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh-ulh Sníchim speaking Peoples the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh Úxwumixw (Squamish Nation), on whose unceded territories BCCNM’s office is located. We also give thanks for the medicines of these territories and recognize that laws, governance, and health systems tied to these lands and waters have existed here for over 9000 years.

We also acknowledge the unique and distinct rights, including rights to health and wellness, of First Nations, Inuit​ and Métis peoples from elsewhere in Canada who now live in British Columbia. As leaders in the settler health system, we acknowledge our responsibilities to these rights under international, national, and provincial law.​
