Not in force
252. In the case of an emergency, the medical and professional services director, the chair of the executive committee of the council of physicians, dentists, pharmacists and midwives, a clinical department head or a head of a service may temporarily grant a physician, dentist or pharmacist authorization to practise within the institution. In such a case, the person who granted the authorization must immediately notify the president and executive director and the president and chief executive officer. The authorization is valid for a maximum period of three months and is renewable only with the authorization of the president and chief executive officer and on the conditions the latter determines.
Sections 236 to 251 do not apply to the granting of such an authorization or to its renewal. Moreover, where the time required for granting the authorization may be prejudicial to a user, any physician, dentist or pharmacist may, without that authorization, give the services required by the state of health of the user.
