Discharge Against Medical Advice Sample Clauses

Discharge Against Medical Advice. Should a competent patient leave the Medical Center against the advice of the attending Practitioner or without proper discharge, a notation of the occurrence shall be made in the patient's medical record. The patient must be asked to sign a form acknowledging departure against medical advice and releasing the attending Practitioner and the Medical Center and its employees and officers from all liability that may arise as a consequence. If it is clear that the patient refusing treatment lacks decision-making capacity, it may be necessary to obtain guidance from a court before discontinuing treatment or allowing the patient to refuse treatment or to self-discharge against medical advice. Therefore, in such event, consultation with Medical Center legal counsel should be obtained.
