→No right to sue
As previously noted, there is no independent right of action or right of compensation based only on a violation of a resident’s rights under the Bill. ([[Introduction, Chapter One and Two of Legal Issues in Residential Care References|149]]) However, it remains important evidence of legal duties owed by the operator, staff and health authorities to the resident or residents.
