Real stories, real change
The report features personal stories, like that of June and Tricia, whose father died following avoidable medical harm. With AvMA’s support during the inquest process, they were able to seek answers and accountability.
“She [AvMA’s adviser] was a refreshing voice during a very emotional time. Her knowledge made a huge difference.” – June and Tricia
