Report Harm or Submit a Complaint

To report harm or submit a complaint to the RHRA, please use our self-service portal. Reports of harm can be submitted by anyone who sees or suspects a situation that harms or puts a resident in a retirement home at risk of harm. Complaints can be submitted when anyone has a concern about the care or treatment of a resident in a retirement home.

Report Harm or Submit Complaint on RHRA’s Self-Service Portal

Administrative Complaints

If you have a complaint against the conduct of an RHRA staff member, an RHRA policy or a policy’s application, you may submit an Administrative Complaint. Administrative Complaints can be submitted directly to the RHRA through the form contained in the Administrative Complaint Policy. If you would prefer reporting anonymously, a third-party service is also available.

Complaints about retirement home operations or complaints that express dissatisfaction with a decision made by the Registrar, relate to an inspection finding, or relate to regulatory policy or legal interpretation, are not Administrative Complaints.

Submit directly to the RHRA | Submit anonymously through third-party
