According to the Resident’s Bill of Right, every
resident has the right not to be neglected by the
licensee or staff.
In other words...
The owner and the staff at the home are not
allowed to neglect you.
Neglect is when the home fails to give you the
treatment, care, services, or help that you need for
your health, safety, or well-being. Neglect also
happens when someone, by not taking action, puts
your health, safety, or well-being at risk.
For example, you have the right to get medication that
is prescribed for you. If you need help getting to the
toilet, you should be taken to the washroom instead of
being forced to use incontinence products such as
diapers, pads, or plastic pants.
According to the Resident’s Bill of Right, every
resident has the right to be properly sheltered, fed,
clothed, groomed and cared for in a manner consistent
with his or her needs.
In other words...
You have the right to receive the care you need.
Your care should include:
a proper place to live,
enough good food to eat,
clean clothes to wear, and
help with looking clean and tidy.
The staff at your long-term care home should look
after any special needs you have.
