Incapacity and Care: Controversies in Healthcare and Research


Overview

Proceedings of an International Conference on Mental Incapacity. What are the duties of carers and health professionals to people with mental incapacity? How ought we to think about the ethical and legal issues? What can any of us do to improve and safeguard the lives of those cared for? This book is aimed at bringing clarity to the debate and finding ethically robust answers to such questions. Among the topics discussed are withholding treatment, tube-feeding patients with dementia, medical research, and sterilisation of intellectually disabled adults. Contributors come from a wide range of disciplines, including psychiatry, nursing, philosophy, theology and law.
