Disclosure

Unfortunately, errors sometimes occur in health care.

If an error occurs in the delivery of care and has:

• reached you or caused you harm; or
• has the potential to cause future harm,

we will disclose this to you and/or a substitute decision maker (SDM) in a supportive and timely fashion.

A disclosure policy (PDF) guides us in how and when we share that information with you and other persons affected, and possibly with the general public.

If you have a concern about your care or a question about disclosure, we want to hear from you. Please contact our Client Relations Office.
