Registered Psychiatric Nursing

I am a member of the British Columbia College of  Nurses & Midwives. I hold an active membership as a registered psychiatric nurse. "Registered psychiatric nurses are nurses whose education and practice have a focus on psychosocial, mental or emotional health. They care for people of all ages experiencing issues related to mental health, substance use or​ behavioural addictions. RPNs have advanced mental health assessment and intervention skills."   (BCCNM, n.d.)
