Some of these rights include; the right to express her own views freely and safely about the matters that were affecting her. It’s seen when she repeatedly told the staff person that she wanted to be known to her peers in the home as frankie, the staff person ignored her and continued calling her Fawzia her legal name. The other right that was violated was the right to be informed, in language suitable to her understanding of her rights under the parts. When frankie was brought into care she was given a form to sign. She found the information in the pamphlet difficult to understand and overwhelming. She wished her rights had been explained to her, along with the house rules and expectations as she was unclear what some of the information meant. The other right that was violated was the right to raise concerns or recommend changes with respect to the services provided or to be provided to her without interference or fear of coercion discrimination or reprisal and to receive a response to her concerns or the recommended changes. This is clear when frankie felt like her roommate was threatening her and she felt unsafe around her, she went ahead and reported to the staff that she felt threatened but the staff did not appear to be concerned, no action was taken and instead they dismissed her worries by telling her to ignore the comments The other right that was violated was the right to be engaged through an honest and respectful dialog about how and why decisions affecting her are made and to have her views given due weight in accordance to her age and maturity.

When she indicated honestly that she does not eat the meat due to religious reasons staff told her that she does not have to eat and did not offer any other meal. The other right that frankie had that was violated was the right to be consulted on the nature of the service provided or to be provided to her, to participate in the decisions about the service provided and to be advised on the decisions made in respect to the services provided. It’s clearly violated when Frankie struggled to adjust her lack of privacy. Twice, she could tell her letters from her grandfather had been opened before they were given to her but assumed the staff members were doing this because they wanted to help her. She just wished they had asked her what she needed. She also noticed that some of her staffs were missing and when she raised her concerns to the staff they reminded her that she had signed a form stating that the program was not responsible for the mis
