Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a clear introduction to the Mental Capacity Act (2005), offering an easy reference guide to the complex issues enshrined within the Act to inform the everyday practice of those who need to perform within its parameters as part of their day-to-day work. Bringing together clinical neuropsychology expertise with legal commentary, the book introduces the main principles and presumptions of the MCA (2005) and describes the processes involved in the comprehensive assessment of what can, in practice, be complex issues. It provides learning summaries, flow charts, checklists, and web references for easy to access resources.
