The CGNA Gerontological Nursing Standards of Practice and Competences (4th Ed, 2020) aim to promote gerontological nursing research and best practices across a variety of settings. As a professional organization responsive to the changing needs of older persons and their care partners in Canada, CGNA promotes these Standards and Competencies to guide gerontological nursing practice and care delivery. CGNA members believe that our Standards and Competencies document demonstrates that gerontological nursing is a vibrant, exciting, evidence-informed practice specialty. We believe that ‘gerontological nursing is a conscious choice’ (Mollie Cole, Immediate Past-President, CGNA, statement to Canadian Nurses Association, Canadian Network of Nursing Specialties, April 2018).
