Make a difference in this rewarding career opportunity
In December 2021, Seniors’ Services Division (SSD) was created to support the Minister of Health and the Parliamentary Secretary of Seniors’ Services and Long-Term Care’s Mandated Commitments and bring a provincial focus to Strengthen Care for Seniors in British Columbia. The focus continues to be on healthy and active aging, access to appropriate primary care for seniors, increasing access to affordable home health supports, and reducing admission to Long-Term Care (LTC) by assisting seniors to remain in their home, all while applying a GBA+ and Indigenous reconciliation lens to policy and operations.
The Assisted Living Investigator (the Investigator) follows up on incident reports and conducts investigations into complaints that are within the Assisted Living Registry’s mandate. The Investigator conducts site inspections of registered assisted living residences to assess compliance with legislation and regulation, as part of an investigation, and of those that may be operating unlawfully (without registration).
