TOH MoNCP is a guide to organize the delivery of nursing care among different categories of nursing personnel, such as Registered Nurses (RN), Registered Practical Nurses (RPN), and Unregulated Care Providers (UCP). Within this model of care, RNs and RPNs are accountable for their practice and work to full scope. MoNCP incorporates the expertise of each category of nursing personnel with consideration to the values and beliefs of the organization.
