The stained glass window hanging of the original RNABC logo, the official symbol of the Association since 1949. Donated to the Association by the Richmond-Delta Chapter in 1987, on the occasion of the 75th anniversary of RNABC . . This picture hung in the front of the Arbutus street building until 1994 when renovations occurred, and was relocated to hang in a window on the building’s upper floor. When the building was sold in 2017 the stained glass hanging was given to the BC History of Nursing Society.
The stained glass window hanging of the RNABC’s new dogwood logo, adopted in 1986 and donated to the Association the same year, by the Richmond-Delta Chapter.

Welcome to the BC History of Nursing Society Website

Our mission is to discover, disseminate, and preserve BC's nursing history. In 1989 interested registered nurses banded together and formed the B.C. History of Nursing Professional Practice Group under the umbrella of the Registered Nurses Association of BC. In 2008 the organization became registered under the Society Act of BC and is now known as the B.C. History of Nursing Society (BCHNS).
