Position Statements / Submissions / Papers
SubmissionsSocial Policy CommitteeBill 179 An Act to amend various Acts related to regulated health professions and certain other Acts - The legislation that will update the way nurse practitioners and other health professionals practice in Ontario. While there are steps forward in the proposed changes, prescribing authority and ability to admit, treat and discharge patients in hospitals are not sufficiently addressed. Over the past week, NPAO and other organizations made presentations to the Social Policy Committee of the Legislature. The Committee will review the feedback and propose amendments.
