JOB SUMMARY

Providence Living is a non-profit Catholic-sponsored health care organization focused on long-term care, assisted living, housing, and other community services to support residents and their family members. We are committed to re-imagining the resident experience and to creating communities and fostering a culture where residents are empowered to make decisions that affect their quality of life.

Under the direction of the Manager, or designate, and in collaboration as a member of a multidisciplinary team, the Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) works collaboratively with the care team to support residents in establishing and maintaining a pleasant, safe and homelike atmosphere by providing nursing services and interventions to residents based on assessment and care planning procedures. The LPN co-ordinates health services, and provides support in activities of daily living, including administering medication.

The LPN functions as an independent practitioner and accesses the Registered Nurse (RN)/ Registered Psychiatric Nurse (RPN) or Clinical Supervisor for collaborative support and/or clinical guidance in situations that fall outside the scope of an LPN, such as increased resident acuity or care.

The LPN operates in accordance with the competency guidelines and scope of practice within the Standards of Practice as outlined by the British Columbia College of Nurses and Midwives, and in accordance with organizational operating policies and standards and department specific protocols.

All staff have a part to play in preventing adverse events and in promoting safety for residents and staff by being aware of and adhering to all policies and procedures including promptly reporting any risks or safety concerns relating to resident or staff safety.

Services at Providence Living are guided by our Mission, Vision, Values, and Ethical Framework. All employees are expected to demonstrate respect for the safety and dignity of all residents, staff and volunteers. Every employee makes a vital contribution to our Mission of providing care with compassion, by exemplifying our core values of respect, excellence and compassion in their work and demonstrates Indigenous Cultural Safety, cultural humility and anti-racism principles.
