On November 20, 2020 a panel of the Inquiry Committee approved a Consent Agreement between BCCNM and Rachel Hahn of Vancouver, B.C. to remediate practice issues that occurred from December 2019 to February 2020 related to medication administration, documentation, escalation of care and response to clinical deterioration, critical thinking, time management, responsibility and accountability, organization, prioritization, collaborative practice and insight. As a new hire in a pediatric critical care area, the Registrant double-charted, failed to satisfactorily complete a medication exam and skills validation stations within the standard timeframe or at all, exhibited poor critical thinking, failed to escalate care and/or respond to clinical changes, and struggled with time management.
The Registrant voluntarily agreed to terms including Limits that prohibit her from working in an Emergency Department or Critical Care for four years or being the sole nurse on duty for four months. She will complete remedial education and follow a Learning Plan for five months. She must meet with a BCCNM Practice Consultant and will be supervised for four months of nursing practice.
The Inquiry Committee is satisfied that the terms will protect the public.
