RNAO's communications department thought it would be useful to put together a few notes regarding style for any written materials you prepare. As a department, we strive to follow The Canadian Press (CP) style, rules developed for journalists to provide consistency when writing and editing.

Given the influence RNAO has within the health-care sector, we want all RNAO documents – from the Registered Nurse Journal and newsletters to marketing materials and correspondence – to look professional and consistent.

Following CP's most basic grammar and style rules will help us achieve this goal.

For questions of style not covered in this guide or glossary, please do not hesitate to contact us.
