Description
Many students find the Ethics and Medico-legal OSCE stations particularly challenging
in the final exam. This handbook addresses issues including capacity, consent, child
protection, psychiatric illness and death certification by giving examples for each
station. Each chapter offers a breakdown of the issues raised by the station, clarifies
and contextualises key issues, summarises the relevant guidelines and explains key
principals within the clinical context. This book will thus provide the student
with strategies to successfully negotiate these challenging stations in a thoughtful,
informed and systematic manner.
