Competence to Consent to Treatment and its Relationship to Legal Capacity
Vol.29,No.2(2021)
Therefore, the article seeks to offer a more appropriate solution that would better protect the interests of the subjects concerned. In this context are analyzed theoretical concepts of competence in detail to determine a person’s capacity to act, i.e. to assess their competence.
Based on a brief comparison, the article shows that in some states, the issue of a patient’s ability to consent (competence) is considered separately from their legal capacity to act and is more contextually defined.
