Sabina Robin has worked as a Licensed Practical Nurse for the last 20 years in both rural and urban facilities and more recently in the community setting. Sabina got involved with patient safety after losing her fourth child, Mataya, in April 2004, following a series of communication breakdowns during a nine day hospitalization that contributed to Mataya's death.  Sabina is one of the founding members of the Family/Patient Safety Council established in 2005, is a National Patient Safety Champion as well as a member of the World Health Organization World Alliance Patients for Patient Safety Canada since 2006. The roles have created many opportunities to collaborate with key stakeholders. Sabina has spoken at several events about the importance of listening to patients and families. She has partnered with physicians to develop guidelines, policies and procedures and has worked with the Patients for Patient Safety Canada Disclosure Working Group to distribute the Principles for Disclosure. ​
