COVID19 Messages and Resources

Keeping Registered Psychiatric Nurses Informed

RPNs and all health-care professionals play a vital role in managing and containing the spread of Covid-19.  It is CRPNA’s expectation that all regulated members must follow public health advice and guidance set out by the Public Health Act.  The advice and guidance by public health are crucial measures to protect the public, ourselves, our families, and the community from the spread of COVID-19.
