Representation Agreement Resource Centre
About this resource
This online resource helps you determine if your loved one needs a Representation Agreement (often shortened to Rep Agreement) and how to register for one.
What if you need help managing your finances or making health care decisions or consenting to living arrangements? Who has authority to talk to ICBC on your behalf, if you are in a car accident? Even a spouse is limited in decisions and tasks they can do on behalf of their spouse, unless a legal planning document is in place giving authority to the spouse or someone else.
Be pro-active so you can stay in control of who will help you or act on your behalf -if you have an illness, injury, or disability that affects your mental capacity. The Nidus website is geared to self-help. Click on the top blue menu bar for information on presentations, videos, fact sheets and more.
Nidus (a Latin term for nest to symbolize support and safety) is a non-profit charitable organization. Nidus has helped thousands of people make and register Representation Agreements and learn about other legal planning documents.
