The "Nursing Officer" Merged Thread

[Lumber]

Does anyone know if civilian RNs that work at hospital on base are required to get/have a security clearance?

Public service or contract?

Contract (I believe); it's with Calian.

So if through the Calian contract, they will have to meet the terms of the contract. I do not have a copy here. I suspect but am not certain that there may be variable clearances depending on where the individual works (so, for example, a nurse hired to support CANSOF units might need higher clearance than a nurse doing STI treatment at the clinic in Petawawa).

Security clearances for contracts are done through PSPC.
