Licensed Practical Nurses and Health Care Aides are health professionals regulated by multiple levels of provincial and federal legislation, guided by professional standards of practice and a Code of Ethics, and supported by policies and other documents.
The Health Professions Act governs LPN and HCA practice in Alberta. The HPA gives the CLHA its authority as a regulatory organization.
Other provincial and federal legislation can also impact LPN and HCA practice.
CLHA Bylaws govern how our organization operates.
