Brother Left Dad Semi Conscious, Confused & Covered In Urine For 8+ Hours(bc ????????)

Location: British Columbia ????????

My dad has been in/out the hospital recently due to cellulitis/AFIB & now diagnosed heart failure. My brother (27M) is a drug user, and lives with my dad. I have been driving my dad to appointments, getting groceries etc but felt ok with my dad at home with my brother there to keep me updated if anything happened.

I hadn’t heard from my dad in a day and a half. I called my brother, who told me my dad had fallen off the bed, was acting confused & peed himself - and that he had been laying on the floor acting like he had a concussion. This all supposedly happened around 3/4 AM, and I didn’t hear about it until 12pm. I told him to call 911, but he refused as my dad was refusing one. I phoned 911 and rushed over to his house.

My dad is clearly confused, thought the paramedics were on the table, thinks he is in the airport instead of the hospital & unable to move. He was so clearly having a medical emergency.
All my brother did was pour water on him to ‘make sure he was awake’

My dad is in critical condition right now. Are there any legal grounds for neglect or something in a situation like this?
