The applicant sought attendant care benefits of $2,058.90 per month following a 2018 motor vehicle accident.

In a partial rehearing, the Licence Appeal Tribunal considered competing occupational therapy assessments regarding the applicant's need for assistance with personal care, meal preparation, and hygiene.

The Tribunal rejected the respondent's position that no attendant care was required, finding that the applicant's pain, fatigue, and lack of motivation necessitated assistance.

However, the Tribunal reduced the applicant's claimed hours, finding some requests duplicative or mitigated by approved assistive devices.

The Tribunal awarded attendant care benefits of $522.30 per month from January 30, 2026, ongoing.

The applicant was injured in a motor vehicle accident and sought statutory accident benefits, including attendant care benefits and various treatment plans.

The respondent denied the claims.

The Tribunal found that the applicant failed to prove the attendant care benefits were incurred or reasonable and necessary, preferring the respondent's section 44 assessments.

The Tribunal also dismissed the claims for the outstanding balances of several partially approved treatment plans, finding the applicant did not meet her burden to establish their reasonableness and necessity.

The application was dismissed in its entirety.

The applicant sought various statutory accident benefits following a motor vehicle accident, including treatment plans for occupational therapy, vocational assessments, case management, attendant care, and housekeeping.

The respondent denied the benefits on the basis that the applicant had reached maximum medical recovery and had returned to her pre-accident employment as a personal support worker.

The Tribunal found that the disputed treatment and assessment plans were not reasonable and necessary, relying on the respondent's multidisciplinary assessments which confirmed the applicant's independence in daily activities and her return to work.

The application was dismissed in its entirety.
