Relevant Person’s Paid Representative

For those who are subject to the Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DoLS) (part of the Mental Capacity Act 2005), and have no one appropriate to take on the role of representative, Paid Representatives maintain contact with the relevant person and represent and support them in all matters relating to the deprivation of liberty safeguards, including, if appropriate, triggering a review, using an organisation’s complaints procedure on the person’s behalf or making an application to the Court of Protection.
