FIRST CONTACT: DETERMINE YOUR NEEDS

Our first concern is to make sure that your request falls within our mandate.  If this is not the case, we refer you to the right place without delay.

If your demand is in line with our mandate, we inform you on how to process your complaint and the limits of the complaint examination system.  Then, it's up to you to determine the level of assistance you would like to receive from us.

FLEXIBLE AND PERSONNALIZED

Through the complaint process, you can choose to:

    Use us as a resource when needed;

      Write your complaint and work on it through our collaboration;

        Ask us to prepare a first draft of your complaint.

WRITING ASSISTANCE

The writing assistance is one of the most  used services appreciated by our users.  Our goal is to put your story in writing, respecting your perceptions, your vocabulary and your expectations.

To achieve this, we take the necessary time to listen to your story in detail.  The interview can be done in person or by telephone which ever suits you best.  Following the interview, we prepare a first draft.  We work in collaboration with you, making the necessary adjustments for the complaint to truly reflect what you experienced.  When the complaint is to your satisfaction, you  must sign it before sending it to the Complaint Commissioner.

MASTER OF YOUR ACTION

No action will be put forward by the CAAP - Laval, without your permission. You can always stop using our services whether or not you continue your complaint process with the Health or Social Service institution involved. Your request to keep us informed or provide a copy of your documents is also optional and can be revoked at any tine. 

Whatever happens, the choice is yours.

Our services are always free, bilingual and confidential
