In this special episode of The College Connection Podcast, we sit down with guest and cohost Kelly Kean to explore the newly released Code of Professional Conduct for Registered Nurses and Nurse Practitioners in Newfoundland and Labrador, which takes effect on June 1, 2025. Kelly shares the background behind this important regulatory document, offers key highlights from the new Code, and underscores what it means for safe, competent, and ethical nursing practice.

Tune in as we break down the six guiding principles, how they support professional decision-making, and the resources available to help nurses across the province integrate the Code into everyday practice.
