Assessing the Impact of Apology Legislation in Canada” Ten provinces and territories have recently adopted ‘apology legislation’ that allows medical professionals to apologize to patients and family members when an adverse event occurs. This legislation also prevents the apology from being used as evidence in a subsequent lawsuit. While apology legislation is now well established legally in Canada, very little is known about the ramifications. Theoretical models suggest that medical apologies could contribute the following: the restoration of respect and dignity, a restoration of power to the patient/family, validation, an opportunity for dialogue ITEM # 2.2.1. AGENDA and the expression of feelings, and, a “promise for the future”- that is, a commitment to correction and/or prevention in future cases. These outcomes are complex and varied yet we do not know if these outcomes or any other unexpected outcomes are occurring. This project collects experiences from various stakeholders through trauma-informed qualitative research interviews to shed light on the impact of apology legislation in Canada. Page 10 of 58 Social Sciences in the College of Arts - Dr. Jacqueline Nolte Arts - Dr. Social Sciences in the College of Social Science Presenters Criminology and Criminal Justice Erika Eastman (MA student, Criminology and Criminal Justice) Erika graduated from the University of the Fraser Valley in 2008 with a Bachelor of Arts’ Degree in Criminal Justice. She began employment with the Canada Border Services Agency as a Co-Op student in 2008, after which she was offered an indeterminate position. She was then deployed to the Correctional Service of Canada in 2011, where she has since worked as a Correctional Program Officer and Institutional Parole Officer. “Policy Recommendations to Enhance the Safe and Secure Management of Federally Incarcerated Transgendered Inmates” Erika entered the Master of Arts (Criminal Justice) program in September 2016, where she began taking courses on Policy Analysis and Social Justice, and Crime, Criminals, Victims, and the Criminal Justice ITEM # 2.2.1. AGENDA System. She quickly identified that a major policy issue currently facing the Correctional Service of Canada was the question of how to most safely manage inmates who identified as transgendered. In April 2018, Erika will defend her major paper on this topic, where she will explain the increased risk of victimization for transgendered inmates and the shortcomings of the current system of management before making policy suggestions that will enable CSC to more safely and securely manage this incarcerated population.
