• Maintain Accurate Documentation: Ensure timely and precise charting within electronic medical records (EMRs), maintaining compliance with privacy and regulatory requirements.
• Collaborate Across Disciplines: Work closely with physicians, NPs, and allied health professionals to ensure seamless, coordinated care for residents.
• Support Quality & Best Practices: Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives and remain current with evidence-based guidelines in geriatric and primary care.

• NP Certification: Successful completion of a Nurse Practitioner program (MN or post-master’s certificate).
• Licensure: Current registration in good standing with your provincial college.
