Summary
Join our team at Providence Health Care as a Nurse, where you’ll provide compassionate, patient-centered care while working in a supportive, interdisciplinary environment. Reporting to the Patient Care Manager and working in collaboration with the interprofessional team, the Licensed Practical Nurse, Hemodialysis Unit, provides practical nursing services in a hemodialysis environment as a member of an integrated nephrology team performing varied and complex renal interventions.
The LPN functions as an independent practitioner, while recognizing situations such as increased patient acuity or care that falls outside the scope of an LPN as appropriate for accessing the RN/RPN for collaborative support and/or clinical intervention. Consults, confers, and collaborates with other members of the nephrology team in facilitating safe and effective interventions through the performance of pre-dialysis, dialysis, and post-dialysis activities such as assessing, planning, implementing, evaluating and documenting patient care, and providing support to patients and their families in accordance with the Standards of Practice for Licensed Practical Nurses as set out by the British Columbia College of Nurses and Midwives and consistent with the mission, vision and values of Providence Health Care (PHC) and established protocols.
Minimum Nurse-to-Patient Ratio
Minimum Nurse-to-Patient Ratios (mNPR) set the minimum number of nurses required to safely care for patients on a given unit. Developed in partnership with the Ministry of Health, the BC Nurses' Union (BCNU), and health organizations across British Columbia, mNPR provides a consistent and transparent approach to staffing that supports safe nursing practice and high-quality patient care. At Providence Health Care (PHC), our approach to implementing mNPR reflects our commitment to person-centred, socially just, compassionate care and our dedication to Indigenous cultural safety.
Guided by our mission and values - Spirituality, Integrity, Stewardship, Trust, Excellence, and Respect - PHC is working collaboratively across all departments to ensure mNPR is thoughtfully adapted to the unique needs of each clinical program and specialty area. This tailored, values-driven implementation aligns with our commitment to compassionate, innovative, and patient-centred care and positions PHC to meet the evolving health needs of our patients, residents, families, and communities.
