TY v. helpful. My experience, not as serious as some. In short I had meeting with Honorary Psychotherapist I thought to discuss counselling he thought to assess. No info given re what to expect no consent secured. He imposed harmful Dx on me. Prof conduct case largely upheld.
-
Interesting the case was upheld. Rightly so, from what you've said. The guidelines are entitled 'Consent to EXAMINATION or treatment' for a reason. You don't even get to assess someone with capacity without their consent, let alone diagnose/treat. Sorry to hear that happened.
-
Upheld by prof regulatory body due to ethical code of client autonomy being breached. They considered informed consent. NHS carried on muttering about being able to rely on implied consent.
-
Anyone who talks about implied consent tends to make me stop and take notice. It may have it's place, but it's a dangerous line around which to dance, that one. It's been a clear, thick, red line since Nuremberg, but some still seem willing to try and blur it.
