I find out soon what is going to happen. The preceptor I was told by other nurse educators is responsible ultimately for the patients and should be mentoring me and not playing with her cell phone in the nursing unit.

I asked the college of physicians in BC and they said you can administer but would still need to be working under a DR. even an LPN can administer as long as they are working with a DR.

the preceptor was busy with a patient that had come from another ward that was non responsive. she checked the chart later and found we missed the BP meds.

i was put on a higher acuity ward than i have worked on before. The error was not giving the meds for BP. They were given but later than they should have been given.

BC is beautiful....RN and RPN get 41 an hour and up. LPN start at 24 go up to 29/per hour its not cheap to live here though better if you a bit further from Vancouver.
