A review into recent allegations of racism in healthcare at Northern Health hospitals has been endorsed by the Northern Health Board.
Allegations are taken seriously and Northern Health is hoping to understand what occurred from the experience of the family, the staff and physicians. Northern Health’s Chief Operating Officer in the Northwest and the Northwest Medical Director will be leading the review. They will also be seeking guidance from Mary Ellen Turpel-Lanfond.
Due to privacy reasons as well as the commencement of litigation Northern Health cannot speak to the specifics of the recent case in the news.
