A Metis nurse-practitioner who filed a $75,000 lawsuit against the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Alberta for interfering with her right to practise had her day in court earlier this month.
"The College of Physicians and Surgeons, in my mind, interfered in an area of jurisdiction that was not their's," said Joyce Atcheson. "As a registered nurse, my licensing body is the AARN, the Alberta Association of Registered Nurses, it is not the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Alberta."
