A panel of the Inquiry Committee approved a Consent Agreement under which the Registrant agreed to undertakings involving regular monitoring for fitness to practice nursing and a limitation on scope of practice. The undertakings include, but are not limited to: regular reports from the compliance monitoring program in which the Registrant is enrolled, disclosure of treatment recommendations to relevant employer representative(s), and a limit on practice designed to prevent the circumstances leading to the practice concern from reoccurring. The Agreement will remain in place for a minimum of 36 months of continuous nursing practice. The reasons for the Inquiry Committee decision are as follows:
- The Registrant provided an independent medical assessment documenting health concerns to BCCNP which could impact the ability to provide safe patient care; and
- The independent medical assessment identified the Registrant is fit to practice nursing, and provided information regarding compliance with treatment recommendations.
The name of the Registrant has been withheld in accordance with section 39.3 (4) (a) of the
Health Professions Act for the purposes of not identifying the personal health information of the Registrant respecting the condition. The Inquiry Committee is satisfied that the undertakings will protect the public.
