'Could have been avoided': B.C. woman dies after visiting primary care

A mission woman believes her mother's death could have been avoided with better care at the urgent and primary care centre on London Avenue, where she was told to go to a walk-in clinic instead of receiving immediate care.
The elder Nikolai died on December 15 after being sent away from the clinic, despite having a history of heart issues and needing medication refills.
A Fraser Health representative confirmed that the nurse's chart did not detail the elder Nikolai's pain or condition, and Madeline was advised to contact the BC College of Nurses and Midwives.
Madeline stated that her mother was clearly having a heart attack, which was not recognized at the clinic, leading to her tragic death.
