On Jan. 25, 2024, a panel of the Inquiry Committee approved a Consent Agreement between BCCNM and Lisa Elyzen, RN, of West Kelowna to address practice issues that occurred in March and April of 2023 relating to failure to provide care and medications to patients in acute pain, and for not carrying out a physician's orders for an acutely ill patient.
The Registrant has voluntarily agreed to terms equivalent to a limit and/or condition on their practice, including:
A two-month suspension of their registration.
A limit that they adhere to a learning plan.
Completion of remedial courses in pain management, professional responsibility/accountability, ethics, and documentation, to address the conduct and competency concerns that gave rise to the BCCNM complaint.
The Inquiry Committee is satisfied that the terms will protect the public.
