Health Treatment Concerns

Patient's rights to their medical records. A fiction in reality? Patients have rights? For evil to prevail – it is sufficient only – that good men/women do nothing?

Patient group aims to lift veil on medical errors

Each year, medical errors kill almost 24,000 Canadians, yet many patients say they struggle getting hospital staff to admit the mistakes. That why they've formed a new group calling for that to change.

That's nearly one needless death every 20 minutes!

Patients for Patient Safety Canada Launches Nationally



An average of 195,000 people in the USA died due to potentially preventable, in-hospital medical errors in each of the years 2000, 2001 and 2002

That's nearly one needless death every 3 minutes!
