Abstract

In Newfoundland and Labrador, the estrogen receptor/progesterone receptor testing errors left an unparalleled effect. Patients, families, members of healthcare teams, and many others were left shaken and wondering how the province could move forward. This article reflects on some of the processes Eastern Health had to go through to learn and grow from the experience, as well as discusses how the organization met the requirements set forth in the Commission of Inquiry report.
