Confidentiality

Practice consultation is confidential within the limits of the legislation and the LPN's standards of practice. All nurses, including BCCNP staff, have a duty to take action when they learn of an LPN with professional misconduct, incompetence or impaired practice. LPNs are required to report this information to BCCNP's inquiry & discipline program.
