Special Meeting of the Members October 7, 2025 6 PM EST
CPCNA has an unexpected board vacancy, as the President Elect stepped down due to unforeseen circumstances. We are actively seeking President-Pt nominees, with the successful candidate moving into the president role in June 2026.
This is an opportunity to use your leadership skills to enhance palliative care nursing practice in Canada. It is a chance to join a dynamic and enthusiastic Board of nurses from across Canada, and this may be the role for you!
The President Elect does automatically transition into the role of President for 2 years, and then Past President for 2 years. Descriptions of each of these roles are attached.
As this nomination/election will take place outside of an annual general meeting, the following process has been determined in accordance with CPCNA bylaws.
Members who are interested in this leadership role are asked to:
-
Ensure they meet the criteria in the President Elect Role description. The President Role description is available for review as well.
-
Complete an expression of interest (1 page) including their nursing registration number
-
CV for review
-
Send to Janice Nesbitt, Past president at cpcnapastpres@gmail.com (nomination committee)
-
Additional reference or letter of support will be required if the criteria are met
-
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE NOMINATION FORM ON THE WEBSITE IS NOT REQUIRED.
With a shortened President Elect term, the board has considered how to ease the transition process for the president elect. This will include:
· Delaying the 2026 annual general meeting to May 2026 to allow for a longer term.
· Mentorship from the current President for as long as the new President Elect requires to feel confident. This can be developed with the President/President Elect collaboratively.
· Every other month Executive meetings (Sec/Treasurer/ Past President/President)
· Monthly Board meeting
