"Exploring the Vital Professional Activities of CEPI in the Nursing Field"

The fundamental rule is that any nursing activity that is not prohibited is considered permissible. When assigning professional duties, it is crucial to consider the primary goal of CEPI practice, which is to enhance their nursing practice learning and solidify their knowledge in preparation for the professional exam.


You can perform the same professional activities as a nurse , with the exception of the following activities*

  1. Activities performed with a parturient (ie from the onset of labor until delivery);

  2. Activities carried out with a client whose state of health is in a critical phase or who requires frequent adjustments;
