Topic 8.4
Why is informed consent crucial when dealing with patients suffering from bipolar disorder?
It is not important provided medication has been prescribed by a psychiatrist.
Informed consent isn't necessary because therapists know best about what treatments will work.
Informed consent only applies to surgical procedures, not psychological therapies or treatments.
It ensures that patients understand their treatment options and potential risks before proceeding.
