Program Description: 

Physicians are often not comfortable assessing patients’ decision making capacity despite the vital need to do so whenever obtaining informed consent.  Many physicians believe that only psychiatrists and psychologists can assess decision making capacity when it is often the providers with the most familiarity with the proposed treatment who are best able to determine if a patient has capacity to consent.  This interactive clinician led small group discussion for M2s in the Foundational Capstone Course focused on the application of ethical priniciples to clinical scenarios that pose management dilemmas. Small group faciliatators who complete pre reading assignment and complete a post test following discussion are eligible to receive CME credit for sessions.
