Statutory · AGTA Designated
Designated capacity assessments under Alberta's AGTA.
When a loved one can no longer make certain decisions safely, families face hard, unfamiliar steps. As a designated capacity assessor under Alberta's Adult Guardianship and Trusteeship Act, we provide formal capacity assessments for legally authorized referrals, conducted with dignity and strict respect for legislative authority.
What this is
A capacity assessment is a formal evaluation of a person's capacity to make specific decisions, conducted by a designated assessor under the AGTA. It supports guardianship and trusteeship processes and is carried out only for legally authorized referrals.
Services include
- Capacity assessments under the AGTA
- Functional decision-making evaluations (as authorized)
- Written formal assessment reports
- Assessments for guardianship and trusteeship processes
- Communication with authorized professionals and agencies
Please note: These assessments are conducted strictly within legislative authority and do not constitute medical or psychological diagnosis or treatment.
