In Practice Corner, we share some frequently asked questions and our answers. This month, we're going through education that the CLPNA does (and does not) offer: ow.ly/K8P650WInkh
Sign up for this webinar, Understanding Burnout in Nursing, for an evidence-based presentation from Dr. Maria Burrell. ow.ly/hTkv50WIngC
The Standards of Practice for LPNs in Canada provide a national framework for LPN practice.
We are excited to announce that, from September 1, Ashley Cesar will serve a three-year term as Council President. Kristan Reynolds will serve a two-year term as Vice President. We thank outgoing President Kurtis Kooiker for his service: ow.ly/SZXY50WIn2H
LPN scope of practice may seem complicated, and it can be hard to know where to start. Sign up for this webinar to gain important tools for your practice: ow.ly/R3vC50WImZa
What is a restricted activity? How can LPNs know if they are authorized to perform them? Watch this video for answers to these questions. ow.ly/qGFh50WImQv
Coming next month: our webinar, Immunization Practice and Regulation, will guide LPNs in understanding professional expectations around this activity. ow.ly/RgwW50WGjxc
LPNs have a responsibility to maintain professional boundaries. Learn more about what this means in this article: ow.ly/M8KG50WGjwh
LPNs who completed their renewal last year were invited to complete a survey on the experiences. Learn more about the feedback we received and the improvements we made: ow.ly/AuCu50WGjut
Out now: our August issue of CARE includes information on an LPN's responsibility related to professional boundaries, council updates, and upcoming webinars. More here: ow.ly/C4Iu50WGiN9
Every year, Alberta LPNs are required to obtain professional liability insurance separate from their registration fees. Learn more about this requirement: ow.ly/TQHq50WGiIA
Registration Renewal for LPNs opens September 8. CLPNA registrants must successfully complete renewal in order to work in Alberta OR cancel a practice permit.
Reminder: LPNs are required to complete the CLPNA module, Protecting Patients from Sexual Abuse and Sexual Misconduct. If you have not completed this module before the November 30, 2025, deadline, you may not be able to renew. Learn more: ow.ly/9c6g50WwWi5
We are closed today, August 4, for Heritage Day. We will reopen tomorrow with our regular hours.
Reminder: LPNs are required to complete the CLPNA module, Protecting Patients from Sexual Abuse and Sexual Misconduct. If you have not completed this module before the November 30, 2025, deadline, you may not be able to renew. Learn more: ow.ly/9c6g50WwWi5
The Health Professions Restricted Activities Regulation authorizes professionals to perform certain high-risk health services. Here's what that means. #HealthRegulation #LPNAlberta #AlbertaNurses
The CLPNA's practice guideline on Confidentiality supports LPNs in navigating the obligation to protect patient privacy and maintain the confidentiality of patient information. See it on the Knowledge Hub: ow.ly/96uI50WmFMG
As regulated professionals, LPNs are accountable for their practice and behaviour. Learn more about key concepts in this topic in this video: ow.ly/7nWe50WmFn5
The CLPNA Council is responsible for the oversight of the organization and for guiding our strategic direction. The Council held their quarterly meeting on May 29 and 30. Learn more: ow.ly/Aiin50WmBzM
