IMPORTANT:
To make clear of this essay please follow the sub-headings in the power point, this will guide your essay. For example slide 2 “ A question to guide your essay” then following on to the actual question “Why are health care professionals required to gain consent/ assent before providing treatment and care?” Read carefully what it says, always remember is is about consent in health care from a nurses perspective.

I have applied other sources and notes which can be useful and in the same theme of this topic you may wish to apply these sources or use your own. These sources are obtained through the uni it self, so remember to in text where ever you gain your information (not including the PowerPoint asking the actual questions- its more of a guide).

Be sure to check the assessment checklist to relate the essay in accordance to the criteria met. It is helpful your check that you check if you have met these standards.
