Your commitment to improving patient care will be supported with ongoing learning and mentorship, allowing you to refine your expertise and broaden your impact in the mental health field.

In this role, you will provide exceptional mental health nursing care across a variety of settings within the Mental Health Care Program (MHCP). Your practice will be underpinned by your experience and/or further studies, allowing you to provide high-quality care while continuously developing your skills and expertise. As a CN, you will take responsibility for your own practice standards and be accountable for activities delegated to others, while offering guidance and mentorship to less experienced staff.
