Question

The HCCA deals separately with consent to treatment, consent to a care facility, and consent to a personal assistance service. In all cases, consent must be given by a capable person.

Option 1: True
Option 2: False

Answer 1

The HCCA does not deal separately with consent to treatment, consent to a care facility, and consent to a personal assistance service.

Step-by-step explanation:

Option 2: False. The statement is false because the Healthcare Consent and Care Facility Admission (HCCA) Act in Canada does not deal separately with consent to treatment, consent to a care facility, and consent to a personal assistance service. Instead, it provides a comprehensive framework for consent to treatment and care facility admission. In all cases, consent must be given by a capable person, and parents can provide consent on behalf of their children who are not competent to provide consent for themselves.
