Nursing Specialties
"Nursing is a progressive art in which to stand still is to have gone back"
Florence Nightingale
Nurses practice across the full spectrum of healthcare delivery settings, from acute care to long-term care, rehabilitation, community-based settings, and beyond. We are involved in a broad range of healthcare activities, from health promotion to palliation. We work with individuals, families, groups, and communities. We also take part in lobbying efforts to improve health locally, provincially, nationally, and globally.
