A nurse in BC has been suspended for a year after engaging in an intimate relationship with a ``vulnerable'' former patient.
The BC College of Nurses and Midwives says the Chilliwack-based nurse signed a consent agreement on September 17th to address her professional misconduct that occurred between April 2021 and February 2022.
The college says in a summary the nurse had an intimate relationship with the client, approximately two months after the termination of the nurse-client relationship.
The college says the nurse also won't be able to work alone in the 12 months after her suspension has been lifted and will have to take an education course on boundaries and professional ethics.
