If you are a nursing employer, we invite you to join CNO’s Employer Reference Group (ERG). We are currently recruiting for two spots in the group.
About CNO’s Employer Reference Group
The ERG is comprised of CNO representatives and nursing employers that reflect the diversity of the nursing profession, practice settings and unique populations served by the health care system in Ontario. The group provides a mechanism for CNO and employers to engage, share information related to patient safety and safe nursing practice and collaborate on regulatory and health system matters. Please see Terms of Reference.
ERG Membership
As part of CNO’s commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion, we strive for a diverse representation of Ontario’s nurses and aim to provide a culturally safe and inclusive space where a variety of viewpoints and experiences can be shared related to matters of client safety and safe nursing practice in Ontario.
Membership in the group is voluntary and is for a three-year term, with an option for a one-year renewal. The group meets virtually every quarter, with the potential for ad-hoc in-person meetings.

- have a range of knowledge and experience in nursing employment settings, including in the area of community health
