At NSCN, we lead to inspire excellence and uphold public confidence in nursing. Guided by our vision to be a leader in regulatory excellence, our mission is to protect the public by regulating nursing services in Nova Scotia.
We do this through setting practice standards, licensing qualified professionals, approving education programs, and ensuring safe nursing practice. Our values—Accountability, Transparency, Integrity, Agility, and Relational Practice—shape how we govern and serve with professionalism, respect, and innovation.
