Do you have elderly clients covered by an incapacity mandate, who are under tutorship or curatorship or who live in a residential and long-term care centre (CHSLD)? Have you noted that a family member, the mandatary, tutor or curator is taking advantage of the situation, misappropriating funds or making decisions that seriously affect the person’s psychological or physical integrity? Since May 30, 2017, you have an obligation to report the situation to a police force or the CHSLD’s complaints commissioner.
