Douglas College offers a Bachelor of Science in Psychiatric Nursing degree. The program prepares students for registered psychiatric nursing, a regulated health care profession. Registered Psychiatric Nurses work with a team of health care professionals to assess patient needs and develop treatment plans, addressing the relationship between a patient’s mental, emotional, and physical health, plus relevant social, cultural, and religious factors.
To enter the Bachelor of Science in Psychiatric Nursing (BSPN) program, applicants first complete Academic Foundations for Potential Psychiatric Nursing Applicants. This consists of 10 prerequisite courses (30 credits), taken part time or full time. After completing the foundations, students may apply to the BSPN program; upon acceptance, they complete the final part of the degree on a full-time schedule and then become eligible to apply to the BCCNM to write the licensure exam. Douglas College also offers limited designated seats for Indigenous students, with self-declaration during application.
As an applicant, you must first complete the Academic Foundations for Potential Psychiatric Nursing Applicants program, which consists of 10 prerequisite courses (30 credits).
