The College of Registered Nurses of Manitoba is Manitoba’s registered nursing regulator and is responsible for overseeing the practice of registered nurses and nurse practitioners in our province.
That means we ensure that all registered nurses and nurse practitioners are qualified to provide safe, ethical care ─ in the same way that driver licensing helps ensure that anyone who has a driver’s license can operate a vehicle safely on our roads.
We have been guiding the registered nursing profession since 1913, and throughout that time we’ve been committed to one central goal: protection and service of the public interest through quality registered nursing regulation.
Vision
We are focused on sustaining patient safety and broader public benefit through meaningful registered nursing practice solutions for Manitoba healthcare.

To protect and serve the public interest through quality registered nursing regulation.

Land Acknowledgement
The College of Registered Nurses of Manitoba (College) respectfully acknowledges that our offices, our registrants, and the public we serve reside and work on the traditional territories and ancestral lands of the Anishinaabeg, Ininewak, Anisininewuk, Dakota Oyate, and Dene, and on the national homeland of the Red River Métis.
The College recognizes the historic and ongoing impacts that colonization and systemic discrimination have on the health of First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples, and that we must take continued, meaningful actions to advance reconciliation and affect change in the regulation of registered nurses.
We respect the Treaties that were made on these territories, and we are committed to moving forward in partnership with First Nations, Inuit and Métis communities in a spirit of reconciliation and collaboration.
