XXXV NO. 3 SEPTEMBER 2014 Message from the President It was an absolute privilege to assume the role of ARNNL President in Gander during the June Annual Business Meeting. We received a warm reception by registered nurses in Central Newfoundland and were pleased to have representation from all regions of the province. Additionally, a large turnout at the Awards for Excellence in Nursing and the open linkage session at the ARNNL Presidents Reception were great opportunities to connect with RNs and the public. It was also a celebration of the 60th anniversary of ARNNL and self-regulation of registered nurses in our province. I wish to acknowledge the passion and dedication demonstrated by my predecessor, ARNNL Past-President, Cathy Stratton throughout her term. I am humbled to be taking my place in the company of Cathy and all of the other visionary nursing leaders who have served before me. Beginning my two-year term on the 60th anniversary of ARNNL allowed me to look back over all that we have achieved and similarly to look ahead at all that is possible in our future. It was a good time to read once again the document prepared for the ARNNL 50th Anniversary in 2004 on the history of our organization. I invite you to read this document at www.arnnl.ca and reconnect with the great legacy of the achievements of ARNNL. In this edition of ACCESS (see p. 8) and in the January 2015 edition, we will give you a glimpse back over the 60 years of ARNNL and self regulation of registered nurses in this province. Celebrating ARNNL’s 60 years is important. Self-regulation is a privilege entrusted to ARNNL by Government through our Act and Regulations. We are accountable to the public to ensure registered nurses are safe, competent practitioners, well prepared to meet standards of practice and our code of ethics. This accountability is the primary driver of the work of your elected Council as well as the staff of ARNNL. In my term as President, I will focus on building active engagement with registered nurses, the public and our partners. I will focus on further strengthening our identity and visibility in the public and ensuring our voice is strong in the realm of healthy public policy, quality professional practice environments and advancing the professionalism of the registered nurse. To this end there are many initiatives and much work underway. I invite registered nurses to also increase engagement in our profession. Get involved at the employer, community, regional and provincial/national/international levels. In just the first few weeks in my role, I have met exemplary RNs in this province making a difference every day. These RNs demonstrate leadership and professionalism in everyday practice. I especially put a challenge out to ARNNL members in this 60th anniversary year to become involved in the work of ARNNL. Visit www.arnnl.ca and review the many published standards, position statements and documents, attend continuing education teleconferences, become a workplace representative, volunteer for committee involvement, provide feedback on draft publications still under development, submit an item for ACCESS or ARNNL UPDATE, get in contact with an ARNNL Council member to discuss issues or attend the Annual Meeting in 2015. Find your voice in a way that works best for you. Regina Coady, RN, MN [email protected] 3 From the Executive Director’s Desk I spent almost nine years working with the nurses of Vietnam. During this experience I learned a lot about nursing practice in Newfoundland and Labrador. I went to Vietnam to help nurses there establish the necessary regulatory processes to enable them to confidently say that all the nurses in Vietnam provide safe, competent and ethical care. My first observation? This statement, which garnered such respect from Vietnamese nurses for the related rules and policies, left me impressed. They were working on their first code of ethics and identifying standards for practice. Their pride was contagious and evident in their commitment to memorize the standards and values that meant so much to them. At that time they didn’t have a licensure system. By comparison, this year ARNNL is celebrating 60 years of licensure. I witnessed the nurses of Vietnam working diligently to understand and promote the value of a national or at least a state- based approved educational program. In 2015, our BN Collaborative Program will undergo its third review in collaboration with the Canadian Association of Schools of Nursing. And the list of differences goes on. Why am I musing about another country and ARNNL’s past achievements? To help you appreciate what I learned through that relationship – having a body like ARNNL makes a meaningful difference to nursing practice. When I first met them the Vietnamese nurses had little control over their scope of practice, limited engagement with nursing schools, no means of addressing public complaints about care and extremely limited access to evidenced-based materials or professional development. I encourage you to learn about all that your Council and the over 300 volunteers on ARNNL committees do

  • 2.0 the Bonavista Peninsula Management District
    2.0 The Bonavista Peninsula Management District 2.1 General Description The Bonavista Peninsula comprises a significant portion of Forest Management District 2 (see Figure 1). The District is bounded by channels within Bonavista Bay known as Clode Sound and Chandler Reach on the north and by Trinity Bay on the east. District 2 narrows on its southern boundary, where it is bounded by an extension of Trinity Bay known as Bull Arm and by the northern bottom of Placentia Bay. The western boundary is formed by Pipers Hole River and by a line which meanders north from the headwaters of that river system through Middle Pond and Norsemans Pond to a point just north of Ocean Pond. From there the boundary follows a straight line east for approximately 8 kilometres and then north along a straight line for Figure 2.1. Map showing boundaries of Forest Management District 02 approximately 15 kilometres, through Ams Pond and Bittern Pond to a point on the ridge that lies between the Terra Nova and Northwest Rivers. Then the boundary follows a generally eastern direction, to the north of the Northwest River system, for approximately16 kilometres to intersect with a corner of the Terra Nova National Park boundary. From there it follows the Park boundary in a southerly direction for approximately 3.5 kilometres and then to the east for another 1.5 kilometres to the junction of Salmon Brook and Clode Sound. The population of the District is 25,290 (census - 2004). The peninsula portion of the District is the most densely populated, with coastal communities scattered around its sheltered bays.
