Who are we?
The PeriAnesthesia Nurses of New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island (PANNB/PEI) association was formed in 2005.
Current membership throughout each of the two provinces is 66 and has been consistently growing each year. All members of PANNB/PEI are automatically members of NAPANc with a portion of the annual membership fee going towards supporting the national association. NAPANc strives to develop our Standards of Practice and have been successful in developing our first CNA certification exam. We are the 20th Nursing speciality to attain certification.
PANNB/PEI’s objectives are: To promote excellence in PeriAnesthesia nursing practice by supporting the NAPANc standards, to provide an opportunity for PeriAnesthesia nurses to meet and exchange ideas of common professional interest, and to provide educational sessions for the professional development of PeriAnesthesia Nurses. PANNB/PEI holds an annual general meeting and education day for its members each fall.
