what are the legal ethical issues in patients with dementia?
Regarding consent and autonomy. what are its principles/theories and how can these be applied?
When there is a full understanding of mental illness there will be much shame. People with mental illness are treated differently than people with other medical conditions. These differences are taken advantage of by individuals who are supposed to help them. In Ventura County California the probate and conservator department exhibited wide spread abuse of the people in their care. The office workers would apply for credit cards and pass them around the office for people to use for personal purchases.
So; quite frankly, in America they have no principles in regards to the care of the mentally ill. My theory is the government will continue to use the prisons for mental health care. The elderly mentally ill are killed through our medicare program. The mentally ill cannot afford nursing homes unless medicare pays for it. Nursing homes work the system. They insist patients have feeding tubes done on the mentally ill elderly to receive the most money from medicare. The system pays 100% for the first 30 days. The elderly mentally ill live almost exactly 30 days then the next one starts the process. It’s been happening for years. Everybody looks the other way. The government saves money. Consent and autonomy never comes up.
