The College discontinues the Camp Nursing and Transferring Clients practice guidelines

The College of Nurses of Ontario’s practice standards and guidelines evolve to keep pace with the advances occurring in nursing practice. A regular review of our documents ensures that they are current and up-to-date. Our last review found the Camp Nursing practice guideline to have outdated clinical information and references; therefore the College will discontinue the printing of the document.

Similarly, the College will no longer publish the Transferring Clients practice guideline. Based on evidence generated through a collaborative research project with researchers, College staff and other regulated health colleges, it was determined that existing College practice standards and guidelines apply to the activity of transferring clients, and a specific guideline is unnecessary.

Authorizing Mechanism practice guideline

The chart on p. 12 of the Authorizing Mechanisms practice guideline incorrectly included chiropodists as health care professionals who were granted the authority to order treatments under the Public Hospitals Act, 1990. The word chiropodist has been removed from the chart.
