Law and Medical Ethics Module 3: Refusal of Medical Treatment

£115.00

Description

A key question to consider during this module is whether consent and refusal are two sides of the same coin? If so, does it mean that the criteria and principles applied to the former must be applied with equal weight and effect to the latter? In logic, there is no difference in the 'ability' to either consent or refuse. In law, however, we find that the two aspects are often treated distinctly, with higher thresholds being required by the courts in relation to refusals.

This course can be taken at any time and is offered throughout the year and you will have two weeks access for each module you book.
