The formation of the Newfoundland and Labrador Health Record Association can be credited to the initial work of the Central Newfoundland Regional Medical Records Committee established in 1977. Challenged with the purpose of discussing issues of common concern, this committee grew in size and scope to become a forum for mutual problem solving and education advancement. Initial topics discussed at the Central Newfoundland Regional Medical Records Committee include patient care plans, medical audit programs, and family profiles. From the success of these meetings, it was proposed that a provincial association be established. 1, record 8, English, - Newfoundland%20and%20Labrador%20Health%20Record%20Association
