British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Complainant v. College of Physicians and Surgeons of British Columbia (No. 1), 2020 BCHPRB 108 (CanLII):
Review Board Decision Complainant v. College of Registered Nurses of BC 2010 BCHPRB 6 guides me in determining whether an investigation is adequate. An adequate investigation: (a) meets a standard which can fall short of an exhaustive or perfect investigation to be adequate; (b) is guided by how serious a complaint is in terms of asserting serious harm to a Complainant; and (c) demonstrates that reasonable steps were taken to obtain key information that would enable an inquiry committee to assess a complaint.
