On June 15, 2020, the Nova Scotia College of Nursing (NSCN) issued an apology to all licensed practical nurse (LPN) registrants regarding two errors related to the communication and collection of LPN renewal fees.
Honouring our Commitments
In addition to resolving the errors immediately, we also made a commitment to:
- Share more information through a Q&A. We met this commitment on June 15, 2020 and the Q&A is available on our website here.
- Assemble an internal Licensure Fee Task Force to identify lessons learned and recommendations to ensure these errors do not happen again. We met this commitment on June 17, 2020 when the Task Force held their first meeting.
- Publish the Task Force report on our website and share with registrants. This report serves to meet this commitment and is available to the public here.
If you have any questions about the report, please contact Caroline Wolfe Stewart, Senior Director of Strategy & Operations, at caroline.wolfestewart@nscn.ca.
