Section 183
Disposition versions
Not in force
183. A majority of the members of a users’ committee must be users, and a majority of the members of a residents’ committee must be residents.
If such a majority is impossible to achieve, the users or the residents may elect any other person of their choice, provided that person does not work for Santé Québec or practise their profession within the institution.
Despite the second paragraph, a person acting as an informal caregiver of a user may be elected to sit on a users’ committee even if the person works for Santé Québec or practices their profession within the institution.
Similarly, a person acting as an informal caregiver of a resident may be elected to sit on a residents’ committee even if the person works for Santé Québec or practices their profession within the institution, provided the committee is not the residents’ committee established for the facility in which the person works or practices their profession, as applicable.
