I am a resident of a long-term care home and I feel that my rights have been violated. What can I do?

If you live in a long-term care home and you believe that your rights have been violated, some options may be available to you, including:

• A complaint to the Nova Scotia government’s Department of Health and Wellness 
• A complaint to the Nova Scotia Human Rights Commission 
• A complaint to the Nova Scotia Office of the Ombudsman

In such circumstances, consider consulting with a lawyer about your rights and the options available to you.
