About

Policies built by someone who knows how CPSBC thinks.

I'm Brittany Buna — BC lawyer, qualified arbitrator, HR professional, and founder of MyClinicPolicies. Before starting this business, I worked directly with the College of Physicians and Surgeons of BC through the regulatory process of opening a private MRI clinic. I experienced firsthand what regulators require, how they assess documentation, and what it takes to meet their standards — from the applicant's side of the table.

My legal practice spans employment law, administrative law, professional misconduct proceedings, and regulatory compliance. I have represented professionals before oversight bodies — including health colleges — and I have taught employment law at the post-secondary level. I understand both the legal stakes and the day-to-day realities of clinic operations.

What that means for you: every policy I draft is legally sound, practically usable, and built by someone who has sat on both sides of the table.

Policy Reviews & Updates

As legislation changes — like the new HPOA — your policies need to keep up. I'll keep your documentation current and compliant.

⚠ New Legislation — April 1, 2026

The Health Professions & Occupations Act is now in force.

BC's most significant healthcare regulatory change in decades replaced the old Health Professions Act on April 1, 2026. If your clinic's policies haven't been reviewed and updated, you may already be out of compliance.

  • Anti-discrimination policy now legally required
  • Practice standards are now enforceable Bylaws
  • Updated complaint handling procedures required
  • Stronger informed consent documentation standards
  • New record-keeping and reporting obligations
  • Sexual misconduct prevention policy must be current
  • Employers must communicate misconduct to CPSBC
  • Independent Discipline Tribunal now active

I can review your existing policies and identify exactly what needs to be updated — or create new, HPOA-aligned documents from the ground up.
