Why Get Certified?
Are you caring for oncology patients in a primary care, general, specialized, pediatric, community or palliative setting?
Are you looking for an opportunity to challenge yourself, advance your nursing skills and improve the care you provide?
The Canadian Nurses Association (CNA) offers certification in Oncology Nursing and Hospice Palliative Care Nursing. Specialty certification offers you the opportunity to:
- Update and expand your specialized knowledge and skills.
- Test yourself against a national standard.
- Demonstrate commitment to excellence in your profession.
- Gain recognition and credibility among your patients, peers and other health care professionals.
In our first few months of operation, the de Souza Institute helped 150 Ontario nurses prepare for the certification exams with funding, study groups and exam preparation. We’re here to help!
More information about the specialty certification program is available on the Canadian Nurses Association website.
