Adolescent
Medicine can be one of the most legally and ethically challenging specialties
in medicine. Often, the law presents
standards of consent and confidentiality that do not completely align, which
can give rise to conflict in treatment.
When minors have the right to confidentiality but not the ability to
consent or to withhold information from their parents, providers might struggle
with how to engage the patient in a way that safeguard them in the event that
they disclose something they prefer to keep confidential. Ethically, providers must weigh their
obligation to do no harm against the rights that parents hold to offer informed
consent to interventions to their child’s health. This can be especially complex when
adolescents are receiving care relating to substance use, mental health,
pregnancy or birth control, disordered eating, or other challenging adolescent
health topics. This presentation will
explore ethical elements relating to the law around adolescent consent, assent,
and confidentiality as well as ethical issues in the provision of care for
adolescent patients.
This seminar is an intermediate level program.
This program qualifies for 1.0 MCLE credit hour, including
up to 1.0 LEPR credit hour.
