Overview

At the October 2024 Board of Directors meeting, Board members were in favour of circulating, for public consultation, a draft version of the amended Nursing Act. These amendments align with NANB’s strategic priority to establish a revised Nursing Act articulating a single mandate as a regulatory body, that is agile and responsive to health system changes.
