GPNs and GNs must practice under the supervision of a registered professional nurse (RN) while they are holders of a Limited Permit. This means that the supervising RN must be on the patient care ward/unit (whichever is smaller) at all times when professional services are being rendered by the limited permitee. The supervising RN must provide an appropriate degree of supervision which is determined by the specific circumstances of the patient care being provided.
