Canadian Nursing Regulatory Framework
Beyond clinical skills, Canadian nursing operates within a specific regulatory and ethical framework: provincial colleges that license and discipline, the Canadian Nurses Association code of ethics, mandatory reporting laws, and the cultural-safety framework specifically for Indigenous health. This course covers what's unique to Canadian practice and how IENs adapt.
