The issue of whether privatization of the preparation of the chemo drugs might have been a factor has been raised by Ontario's Health Minister after a pharmacy technician noticed a discrepency in the amount of fluid in some of the bags.
Chief of Staff Dr. John Dornan is promising the Regional Hospital is going to be alot more careful in the future. He's vowing there will be more specificity with suppliers.
