Since 1925, the Registered Nurses’ Association of Ontario (RNAO) has lobbied for healthy public policy, promoted excellence in nursing practice, increased nurses’ contribution to shaping the healthcare system, and influenced decisions that affect nurses and the public they serve.
RNAO’s ambitious Best Practice Guidelines Program, funded by the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care, was launched in 1999 to provide the best available evidence for patient care across a wide spectrum of healthcare areas. The 37 guidelines developed to date are a substantive contribution towards building excellence in Ontario’s healthcare system. They are available to nurses and other healthcare professionals across Canada and abroad.
