The president of the BC Nurses Union has resigned over what the union says is personal reasons.

A brief statement on the BCNU website says Christine Sorensen will be pursuing other opportunities.

Sorensen leaves just a week after the BC government announced mandatory vaccinations for all health-care workers in the province.

The union has expressed its support for vaccinations, but has raised concerns that the order will contribute to the already severe nursing shortage.

BCNU's message on website:

Notice regarding BCNU President - The BC Nurses' Union thanks Christine Sorensen for her years of dedication and service to the BCNU. Christine Sorensen has resigned as President of the BCNU for personal reasons and to pursue other opportunities.
