Health Care Law: Text and Materials is designed as a core text suitable for a wide range of health care and medical law courses.
Utilising the popular text and material approach, this title provides an accessible and stimulating collection of cases, statutes, reports and reform proposals, together with a comprehensive accompanying text that reflects the complexity of health care issues.
The authors examine in detail all major legal, professional and technological developments in the area, including rights to health care, the changing structure of the NHS, the expansion of the role undertaken by nurses, the NHS complaints mechanism, consent to medical treatment by and on behalf of minors, and treatment decisions at the end of life.
