CHSLD: Keep legal representatives informed
A man filed a complaint against a CHSLD for failing to provide him with important information on a relative.
For each complaint it receives, the Québec Ombudsman determines whether or not it can investigate. At the end of an investigation, if we see that a mistake or injustice has occurred, we make recommendations. We make them to the responsible authorities to have the situation corrected. Here are some real-life stories that provide an overview of our interventions.
