Leadership Opportunity for Central Region Councillor … Run for CRNNL Council
Would you like to shape the advancement of nursing regulation and practice in your profession? As a member of CRNNL Council you will fulfill one of the most important responsibilities of being a registered nurse (RN) – leading your regulatory body in the public’s interest. Why not run for election as the Central Region Councillor and/or nominate an RN who can make this valuable contribution to the profession? To be a candidate for election, the nominee must be a registered nurse who resides within the Central Region and holds a practicing license in good standing issued by CRNNL. Any current member of CRNNL (practicing, non-practicing) can nominate an RN.
CRNNL members are invited to submit nominations for the Central Region Councillor to fill a vacancy for one year (2023-2024).

All Councillors are expected to attend Council meetings in St. John’s (approximately three) and by teleconference (eight tentative), and the Annual General Meeting. Council members will serve on at least one Council sub-committee and on the College Complaints Authorization Committee (CAC).

Participation on CRNNL Council is a voluntary role, however, all reasonable expenses associated with attending meetings are reimbursed by CRNNL. CRNNL does not provide salary reimbursement for attendance at CRNNL meetings.
The conduct of nominations and elections is an open process. At any time after the call for nominations, an individual RN may contact CRNNL and ask if there are any nominations received, the candidate’s name, and position for which the candidate is seeking election. Following the tally of online votes, the Chairperson of the Committee on Nominations will advise all candidates of the results of the election.
