Sure. I apologize. Yes, it hit a chord. It always hits a chord.
My biggest issue with PCVRS and working for them, on that point of breaching my code of ethics, is that I have worked for a few organizations, which I just mentioned, including Correctional Service Canada. They have service standards. AHS has service standards. At PCVRS, during all of my training, there was no mention of service standards, accreditation or keeping that accreditation.
I also witnessed that there was no oversight. There was nobody to voice my concerns to, other than the director or the manager directly in charge of my services—that was frustrating—whereas working for other government organizations or agencies, especially in a public service sense.... At AHS, if I had an issue, I'd go to the patient advocate's office or the mental health advocate's office. I didn't have that option. Even as a veteran, post-working for PCVRS, I was told to go and talk to my ombudsman or an MD.
