About The Role

The Primary Care Nurse practices in accordance with the standards of professional practice and code of ethics as outlined by the British Columbia College of Nurses and Midwives (BCCNM).

Responds to changing health care needs to achieve optimal health focusing on health promotion, disease prevention, living well with complex chronic conditions, and end-of-life care.
