Educational Tools
The College of Nurses provides a number of educational tools to help nurses and employers understand and apply the standards and guidelines in their day-to-day practice.
The College also offers two programs to help nurses with specific practice-related enquiries: our Practice Support Line, an opportunity to ask practice-related questions, and the Outreach Program, which supports nurses with tools and consultations based on the unique needs of nurses in different practice sectors.
