June 15th is World Elder Abuse Awareness Day. For events across BC, check out out friends at BC CRN and their amazing programming across the province!

Elder abuse is often misunderstood, which can make it harder to recognize and prevent.

As we approach World Elder Abuse Awareness Day on June 15, understanding the facts can help us challenge common misconceptions and support older adults in our communities.

Take a moment to read through these important facts and consider sharing them with others.

Awareness is one of the most powerful tools we have in preventing abuse and promoting safety and respect for older adults.

May 31st to June 6th is Canada's National AccessAbility Week. This year's theme is "Building a Strong, Accessible Canada."

At Nidus, we believe that accessibility means self-determination and self-empowerment. Representation Agreements allow people to ensure that their wishes will be respected, even when they can't speak for themselves.

Today, we're reviewing Representation Agreements (Section 9). A Representative in an RA9 agreement can make all kinds of decisions about Health and Personal Care.

In this Legal Byte, we revisit an example of how an RA9 might be used.

Visit nidus.ca for more information on whether a Representation Agreement (Section 9) is right for you.
