Exciting new developments have recently been announced for nurses on Prince Edward Island! New regulations allow RNs with advanced certification to prescribe, dispense and administer certain drugs. This empowers RNs to work to their full scope and capacity while offering new educational opportunities. Additionally, PEI is the first province in Atlantic Canada to recognize RPNs (Registered Psychiatric Nurses) as a distinct profession. RPNs will be introduced to settings like hospitals, long-term care facilities, clinics, patient medical homes and community mental health centres! It is an exciting time to join the Health PEI team. If you are a nurse interested in learning more, please reach out! Contact healthrecruiter@gov.pe.ca.

“Virtual Hallway is just a really useful tool. This gives primary care providers timely and efficient access to specialists like myself, and it is easy. I can spend 10 to 20 minutes on the phone consulting with a nurse practitioner or family doctor, and we can often avoid the months of waiting it might take for one of their patients to get an appointment with me.” (Dr. Pat Bergin) 👉Read more about how Virtual Hallway is decreasing wait lists on PEI: https://bit.ly/4bWfSLZ
