Study Notes
Announcements & Midterm Update
- Professor Cervantes and Mika Lovic will host a session on nursing children in hospitals.
- The following week's topic is end-of-life ethics.
- A reading titled "Pepperoni Pizza and Sex" is required before the discussion on the 11th after the midterm. This article is an example of narrative ethics.
Workshop & Loved Ones
- The workshop report is due tonight.
- The lecture emphasizes consent and opt-in/opt-out regarding organ donation and scarcity.
- The professor suggests discussing ethics related to organs with loved ones.
Confinement & Psychiatric Treatments
- Confinement, a restrictive measure, is categorized as preventative, provisional, and authorized.
- Preventative confinement is for immediate danger to self or others (e.g., someone threatening others). No court order is needed.
- Provisional and authorized confinements require court orders—e.g. when a person is a danger to themselves, but not immediately, or in cases of refusal of treatment.
- Confinement facilities must be institutions, not private residences.
Treatment Orders
- Treatment orders are used to administer medications or other medically necessary interventions.
- The hospital has the burden of proof to demonstrate lack of patient consent, categorical refusal, and treatment's benefit to well-being.
- Psychiatric assessments, usually done via detailed motions and reports, are crucial for treatment orders.
- A variety of elements are required to support the treatment request in court including details of symptoms, behavior, and mood.
Establishing Capacity
- Treatment decisions depend on a person's capacity to consent.
- Five questions assess capacity: (1) illness understanding; (2) treatment understanding; (3) benefits/risks; (4) non-treatment risks; (5) illness's impact on understanding
- Capacity to consent is different than legal capacity. Even those with limited capacity are entitled to express themselves.
Preventative Confinement
- Preventative confinement requires a grave and immediate danger to oneself or others.
- This can be initiated without court order by crisis intervention units or police if there's significant risk of harm.
- The hospital must immediately examine the patient upon arrival
- The physician then determines if preventative confinement is warranted.
Provisional & Authorized Confinement
- Provisional confinemnt includes assessing if a person is dangerous to self or others in the near future. This is judged by clinical standpoint and requires a court order.
- Authorized Confinement involves a longer term institutional stay to treat a person who is dangerous to themselves or others. Court order is necessary.
- The timeframe varies and depends on ongoing evaluations by physicians.
Patient Access to Medical Records
- Patients have the right to access their medical records, including relevant communications.
- This access may be temporarily restricted to prevent harm, but this is not permanent and should be based on clinical judgement.
- In the case of death, legal representatives of the deceased have the right to access the record, unless the deceased explicitly refused this access in writing.
- Minors' records are subject to different rules; the Director of Youth Protection must be involved, and access may be limited to safeguard a child’s well-being.
Duties of Medical Professionals to Report
- Medical professionals have a duty to report potential child endangerment issues.
- Signs of neglect, abandonment, abuse, or severe behavioral disturbances are grounds for reporting.
- Untreated conditions can have negative effects on a child’s development; this is to be reported.
Ethics Consults/Clinical Cases
- A patient with acute leukemia desired sunshine and cannabis for treatment instead of hospital treatment.
- The medical team justified keeping him, citing the risk of sepsis if released.
- The case highlights instances where clinical judgments overrule patient preferences in the best interest of the patient.
- Another case describes a patient who was taken against their will. This patient resisted evaluation; these cases highlight different clinical and legal implications .
Patient Options and Rights
- Patients should be kept informed at all times about their condition and course of treatment.
- Patients retain rights to legal counsel and communication with the outside world, though these may be limited in confinement situations.
- Documentation of patient interaction and reports are crucial for legal procedures.
Resources and Administrative Issues
- Patients may have limited access to resources and services in hospitals suffering resource overload.
- Legal decisions in such cases should factor in the realities of healthcare systems' capacity, and not be wholly based on patient access.
- Several cases discuss instances of legal and clinical decision-making to ensure safety in all cases.
Key Principles & Practice
- Medical professionals are expected to maintain ethical and legal standards to protect patient well-being while respecting legal frameworks.
- Hospitals can't unilaterally restrict patient care due to resource constraints.
- Treatment and confinement procedures must follow legal protocols (e.g., time limits for evaluations).
- Medical and legal professionals should prioritize patient rights when making decisions that infringe on their rights.
- Legal reports must be very careful with the wording and data used.
