Legal Aspects of Pain Management, 2nd Edition
Quay books, April 2010, Pages: 200
This second edition of the highly successful Legal Aspects of Pain Management sets out the basic facts of the legal system in an easy-to-understand, jargon free style designed to clarify important aspects of the law for healthcare professionals.
Extensively revised and restructured throughout this edition includes new chapters on important topics such as complaints and patient representation, record keeping, research as well as updated information on confidentiality, consent, professional practice, letting die, negligence and plenty more. It considers the legal issues which have arisen in recent high-profile cases and discusses the implications of legislation extending prescribing powers. New case studies have been included and each chapter also presents questions and answers to reinforce understanding.
This is vital reading for healthcare students and practitioners involved in pain management, as well as patient groups, relatives and managers who have to deal with the many complex legal issues relating to pain management.
