- Teach patients and families/caregivers about illness prevention, health restoration, and health maintenance to help patients accomplish their healthcare goals. Assess the learning needs of the patient and family/caregiver; provide information and demonstration of care activities to support self-care and the discharge plan.
- Plan and discuss referral information with the patient and their families/caregivers, and, in collaboration with members of the interprofessional care team, initiate referrals to appropriate healthcare/community agencies.
- Document assessments, nursing diagnoses, observations, interventions, patient/family responses, outcomes/evaluations, and referrals according to practice standards and Fraser Health procedures.
- Participate on nursing committees, care conferences, and councils as assigned or as agreed to with the Manager.
- Participate in research and quality improvement activities by identifying patient care issues, collecting data, and identifying needs and recommendations for corrective action and changes to practices, procedures, or protocols.
- Participate in and attend in-services and other educational programs. Identify own learning goals and maintain and update current clinical competence and knowledge within the area of practice.
- Act as a preceptor or mentor to assigned new nursing staff and students; share information, demonstrate care activities, participate in orientation.
- Provide feedback to the Manager/delegate regarding the effectiveness of patient care programs, policy/clinical decision support tools (e.g., clinical pathways, standards, order sets, and procedures), and equipment.
Education and Experience
Graduation from an approved School of Nursing with current practicing registration as a Registered Nurse with the British Columbia College of Nurses and Midwives (BCCNM).

- Ability to communicate effectively with patients, families/caregivers, the public, medical staff, and members of the interprofessional care team using verbal, written, and electronic communication means.
