Dear RNAO Waterloo Chapter,
During Mayor Kathryn McGarry's call in February, she spoke about the upcoming site selection report for a potential Consumption and Treatment coming to Cambridge Council.
Tues March 30 at 5:00, Cambridge Council will consider a report regarding 2 sites, with the recommendation that Council directs staff to move ahead with public consultation on both candidate sites.
Unfortunately, there is a lot of misinformation circulating regarding CTS which is harmful to this process.
This March, Conestoga’s School of Health & Life Sciences will have completed our three-year pre-designation journey to become a Registered Nurses’ Association of Ontario Best Practice Spotlight Organization. We are the one of the first colleges in Ontario and Canada to do so.
To celebrate, Conestoga will be hosting a virtual showcase event on Wednesday, March 31 11:30 am – 12:30 pm via Zoom. We will host members of the community to speak to how the BPSO designation will positively impact Conestoga’s students, college, and community.
