Saskatchewan Chapter

Current Member Count: 53

Saskatchewan is one of Canada's prairie provinces with a population of 1,010,146, with most individuals living in the southern half.  The province's name comes from the Saskatchewan River, whose name comes from its cree designation: kisiskāciwani-sīpiy, meaning "swift flowing river". With Regina being the capital city of the province it is only fitting that the Saskatchewan Chapter be based out of here.  

The province of Saskatchewan, city of Regina, is home to the RCMP Depot, the Saskatchewan Roughriders, the Western Agribition, the Royal Red, and many more festivals.

The Saskatchewan Chapter currently has seven executive members sitting on the board and we are always looking for individuals interested in joining our team. Although all it's executive members are based out of Regina, the Saskatchewan Chapter has been communicative with all its members across the province through emails. The Chapter has been very busy with fundraising ideas.

Our goals and objectives for the year are:

  1. To promote critical care nursing
  2. To provide educational opportunities
  3. To encourage CNA certification / re-certification in critical care
  4. To communicate with the membership
  5. To plan an education day
  6. To provide funding to the membership for conference attendance

The Saskatchewan Chapter strives to follow in the footsteps of the Montreal Chapter of the CACCN by being committed to supporting critical care nurses in their attainment of excellence in nursing practice by

  • increasing awareness and implementing standards of critical care nursing practice
  • providing educational opportunities
  • providing networking opportunities
  • identifying and addressing political and professional issues
  • collaborating with other professional organizations
