Questions of capacity can, and do, arise in various areas of practice. How confident are you in being able to spot red flags, conduct a capacity assessment and determine when to seek a clinical capacity assessment?
In this Paper, Professor Kate Diesfeld JD and Dr Mark Fisher will explore the nuanced assessment of capacity across common contexts, from making wills to making medical decisions. Attendees will learn what the concept of capacity is and how the courts have recently responded to issues of capacity.
All legal professionals who assess mental capacity in their area(s) of practice, such as lawyers who practise in the fields of elder, mental health and family law as well as general practitioners.
