medical treatment and changes of accommodation. It is available to those who have no family or friends whom it would be appropriate to
consult about these decisions. The service includes adult protection cases (POVAs) and care reviews. IMCA also has a role in the
Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DOLs) process. An IMCA may be instructed by the Supervisory Body to support a person for whom an
authorisation is being sought; or to undertake the role of the Relevant Person's Representative, or to provide assistance to the relevant
person and their representative in exercising their rights under the legislation.
