Since 1997 the Helen & Fred Bentley Awards for Excellence of Achievement recognize members of the Canadian Federation of Sexual Health who have shown outstanding achievement in the field of sexual and reproductive health. A first and second place award are given annually. This year's first place winner is Options for Sexual Health for our work on the Certification of Registered Nurses in Reproductive Health Practice.
After the provincial government amended the Health Professions Act to expand the scope of practice for registered nurses to include contraceptive management and sexually transmitted infection management, OPT collaborated with the Specialty Nursing Program at the BC Institute of Technology (BCIT) to prepare a comprehensive training and certification program.
