The following excerpt is from Beardwood v. Sheppard, 2016 BCSC 100 (CanLII):
An award for the cost of future care is based on what the evidence shows is reasonably necessary to preserve and promote the plaintiff’s mental and physical health: Gignac v. Rozylo, 2012 BCCA 351 at para. 30. The extent to which the award should be adjusted for contingencies depends on the specific facts of each case.
