Vancouver Friends For Life is a small, largely volunteer-run organization that provides complementary wellness services. To ensure the safety and success of all participants, clients must be able to independently manage their participation in our programs.

This includes the ability to:

Communicate their own needs and provide informed consent.
Schedule and attend appointments independently.
Self-advocate during appointments and wellness sessions.
Take responsibility for their complementary care and participation in programs.

At this time, our services may not be appropriate for individuals who require intensive case management, ongoing crisis support, complex mental health care, active addiction treatment, or significant assistance navigating appointments and services. We are unable to provide medical supervision, addiction services, outreach support, or caregiving assistance.

Based on your clinical assessment, is this client able to independently participate in our wellness programs?

Yes

Any programs you would advise against, or additional notes for VFFLS staff?
