Making a report of adult abuse, neglect, or self-neglect to Fraser Health
Fraser Health is responsible for responding to situations of abuse and neglect involving adults unable to seek support and assistance on their own due to restraint, physical handicap, illness, disease, injury or any other condition that affects their ability to make decisions about the abuse or neglect.
Fraser Health has specially trained staff who respond and investigate reports of possible abuse and neglect of adults. These responders are located in hospitals and community programs throughout Fraser Health.
If you have concerns that a vulnerable adult may be:
  • Abused or neglected
  • Living at risk due to neglect or self-neglect
  • Having trouble knowing if they can get support and assistance on their own, and how to go about it
Please contact your local Home Health or Mental Health office for adults who are living in the community. For adults who are currently staying in a Fraser Health hospital, you will need to contact the unit social worker.

Getting help from the Public Guardian and Trustee You can contact the Public Guardian and Trustee of BC when you are concerned that an adult is no longer able to manage their financial, legal and/or health care matters on their own. The Public Guardian and Trustee also receive reports and allegations of financial abuse by a third party. The Public Guardian and Trustee will gather information, take steps to protect assets and determine if formal arrangements are required for ongoing financial management.
