EXCLUSIVE: TerraceBC couple challenge Northern Health’s ultrasound policy
A Terrace couple is speaking out against Northern Health’s policy at Mills Memorial Hospital prohibiting guests, including partners, from being present during ultrasound scans.
He believes that the policy does not match the experience of others he has spoken to. “Nobody I’ve talked to has ever said that they had to wait outside,” he added.At that time, England was also not allowed to accompany Seymour for her ultrasound. Hospital staff cited policy as the reason, suggesting the presence of another person might distract the ultrasound technician and that any potential issues with the pregnancy could not be discussed by the technician.
Collins said that “after all diagnostic images are taken and providing there is time remaining in the appointment, one additional person can be brought into the room to view the images. Patients are advised of this when appointments are booked — and while every effort is made to leave time in the appointment for an additional person to come in, it is not always possible.
