| Student Objectives: |
Describe the ethical and legal aspects of patient autonomy and self-determination.
Describe the specific elements of decision-making capacity.
Define the ethical and legal requirements of disclosure (PARQ): nature of the procedure, alternatives, risks and questions.

|
|
| Small Group Activities: |
- Students should reflect on when and how they have seen their preceptors use informed consent discussions.
- Students will use their new knowledge of informed consent to practice the communication skills needed for the process. Students will work in groups of three: patient, physician, and observer. Give about 5 minutes for each student to read the first scenario, 10 minutes for their informed consent discussion, and 5 minutes for observer debriefing. The process can then be repeated either to retry parts with the same roles or with students changing roles.
- Repeat the exercise with the other 2 cases, with students changing roles.
