What's New At CPCNA?
Education
One of the top priorities of CPCNA is to support its Members in their professional growth. Throughout the year, we will offer educational resources and opportunities based on the Pan-Canadian Palliative Care Competencies for Nurses (to be released in early 2021) and the Hospice and Palliative Care Competencies from CNA.
​
Attending these events can support hours for certification in Hospice and Palliative Care with CNA, and may also be eligible to support your regulatory Continuing Competency activities (check with your local practice regulator).
​
Select events are free for Members and at a minimal cost for Non-members.
​
Members of CPCNA have free access to recordings of previous webinars. Recordings remain available for a minimum of 90 days.
​
We also aim to support nurses seeking initial or renewal of certification in hospice palliative care nursing through the Canadian Nurses Association. These series are in the development phase. More information should be available in the coming months. Stay tuned!
