The User’s Committee has the mandate to protect the rights of users. The principles underlying this mandate are: the committee acts independently; represents all users; makes sure that users’ rights are respected; and develops a partnership with the establishment.
Their Functions include:
- Informing users of their rights and obligations through meetings, newsletters, website entries, and Public Service announcements via local media, i.e. radio, cable TV and newspapers.
- Fostering the improvement of the quality of living conditions of users by making themselves aware of the surrounding cleanliness, safety, the quality of food, the activities and treatments offered
- Assessing the degree of satisfaction with services obtained through formal surveys as well as speaking with users, making room visits and managing a User suggestion box
- Defending the common rights of users by providing feedback to hospital administration regarding areas for improvement
- Assisting a user in filing a complaint either in writing or verbally which they then forward to the Executive Director for review and follow-up.
