Appointments

Do you need help getting started or understanding which document is right for you or someone you are helping?
Do you have questions about your role as a representative or monitor?

Nidus does not provide drop-in services. Nidus offers 25 minute appointments for personal help. The appointments are for information. We do not give legal advice. Appointments can:

• answer your questions about personal planning
• help you determine which documents you need and where to get the legal forms
• provide tips for using a Representation Agreement at the bank, hospital or government agency

“Thank goodness I booked an appointment…I read information on the website but there is so much more to understand. I would have wasted money and time without this help.”

“The extra tips for our situation are invaluable. Nidus is truly the expert on the practical as well as the legal issues.”

As a charitable organization, Nidus provides free resources for self-help through the website and personal assistance by appointment for a modest fee. Nidus is the only centre of practice, knowledge and excellence in Representation Agreements. We are very grateful for your donations (see button on the right) to our charity – enabling us to help you and yours, today and in the future.

 
Phone Appointments – we call you

THURSDAY – TBA

Due to staff schedule, Nidus is not able to offer personal help by appointment at this time. The volunteer Board of Directors is working hard to secure funding for core services such as these appointments. We need to be able to train and support more people to provide personal help and accurate information.

If you believe personal help from Nidus – an independent resource and expert – is important for providing you with reliable information, please let your provincial MLA know. It could help the efforts of the Board as the MLA may not know about the public’s need.

Nidus has managed for 18+ years on bits and pieces of funding from grants in order to provide education and assistance services. The demand has increased, but not our capacity to meet the need. Unlike the Nidus Registry service, which pays for itself and is secure and established, education services need some financial support to ensure accessibility for everyone.

Thanks for your support. Please check back as we will post dates and times when appointments are resumed.

The Nidus website offers information and Representation Agreement forms for self-help. Here are some key resources – click to read or watch:
