Apply recommendations across Saskatchewan: children’s advocate
Jul 28, 2011 | 5:01 PM
Recommendations to prevent the deaths of other babies should be implemented across Saskatchewan, not just in the Regina Qu'Appelle Health Region, says Saskatchewan's children's advocate Bob Pringle.
That health region did a review after newborn Cambria Shuba died at the General Hospital in March. She had been in the same bed with her sleeping mother when was found by a nurse to be in respiratory distress.
Pringle wants the recommendations from that review to apply to health regions across the province so there is consistency.
Pringle said he has sent a letter to Health Minister Don McMorris asking for a a broader application of the critical review.
