CHILLIWACK — The B.C. College of Nurses & Midwives says a Chilliwack nurse has agreed to a five-day suspension involving a breach of professional nursing standards.

According to its website, a panel of the Inquiry Committee approved a consent agreement on February 18, 2026, between the BCCNM and Veronica Longe (née Osamoh) of Chilliwack to address what it calls “practice issues related to patient care, documentation, and delegation of duties to an appropriate healthcare professional.”

The conduct was unsatisfactory, with respect to the following professional and practice standards that BCCNM set:

a. Duty to Provide Care

b. Documentation

d. Ethical Practice

e. Knowledge-based Practice

f. Client-focused Provision of Service

g. Professional Responsibility and Accountability.

The regulatory body says standards set expectations to ensure nurses are practising competently, ethically, responsibly, and safely.

“Nurses are accountable for their nursing decisions, actions, and professional conduct. Nurses must meet these standards in providing care to patients,” the college wrote on its website.

The college says the registrant has voluntarily agreed to a five-day suspension of her registration for breaching the above standards.

​The Inquiry Committee says it is satisfied that the terms will address the issues and protect the public.
