The Marie Keating Foundation says doctors need proper training on how to deliver bad news.
The organisation says it was ’absolutely horrified’ to hear how some women affected by the cervical cancer controversy were told about their situation.
Dr Scally's report revealed how one patient’s family were told ‘nuns don’t get cervical cancer’.
CEO of the Marie Keating Foundation, Liz Yeates, says doctors need to be trained correctly on how to speak to patients.
