Ontario’s healthcare consent laws and rules are complex and may be difficult for caregivers to understand. Yet, having the right legal information can help everyone feel informed and empowered to support the best patient care. In collaboration with the Advocacy Centre for the Elderly, join us to learn more about legal topics including:
• Substitute Decision-Making for Property and Personal Care
• Healthcare Consent and Advance Care Planning
• General information on Henson Trusts, and Wills
