What is a UBC RN?

UBC RNs are Registered Nurses who work on a Unit-Based Council (UBC) within a hospital or healthcare facility. These nurses not only provide direct patient care but also participate in shared governance by collaborating on decisions that affect their unit's practice, policies, and patient outcomes. UBC RNs help to improve quality of care, enhance teamwork, and promote professional development among nursing staff. Their role is essential in fostering a culture of continuous improvement and accountability on their unit.
