Upcoming events
Registered Nurses Network Update
The Registered Nurses Network of BC (RN Network) serves as a coalition created to coordinate strategic planning and action toward the establishment of a permanent professional association mechanism for nursing in BC. It serves as a temporary voice for articulating a nursing perspective on matters of public policy or concern outside of the mandate of existing organizations until such time as a more permanent mechanism for professional nursing policy involvement emerges. http://www.nursing.ubc.ca/Scholarship/RNNetwork/
