About your opportunity

You will assume accountability and responsibility for your own actions and for the delegation of care to enrolled nurses, assistants in nursing, and healthcare workers. This requires sound professional judgement and a clear understanding of your scope of practice.

As you build experience in the role, you will demonstrate increasing autonomy and exercise higher levels of professional judgement in the clinical environment, progressing from a beginning practitioner to a more experienced clinician.
