59. If the operator of a private seniors’ residence notices that a resident is behaving unusually or in a way that may harm the resident or another person, or notes a loss of cognitive autonomy associated with behavioural disorders, the operator must notify as soon as possible the resident’s representative, if applicable, and the person to be contacted in the event of an emergency. If that person cannot be reached in time, the operator must notify a close relative.

With the consent of the resident or the consent of any person authorized to give consent on the resident’s behalf, the operator must also notify the local authority concerned.
