Section 11
Disposition versions
Not in force
11. Every user of health services and social services is entitled to be informed of their state of health and well-being, so as to know, as far as possible, the various options open to them and the risks and consequences generally associated with each option before consenting to care concerning them.
They are also entitled to be informed, as soon as possible, of any accident that occurred during the provision of services they received and that has actual or potential consequences for their state of health or well-being and of the corrective measures taken, if any, with regard to such consequences, or to prevent such an accident from recurring.
For the purposes of this Act, “accident” means an action or situation where a risk materializes and which has or could have consequences for a user’s state of health or well-being.
