dc.description | This researcher works as a healthcare professional in a residential care centre for older people. Ireland’s healthcare providers are currently in a very challenging legal and ethical hiatus, with regard to care for a person lacking capacity who either does not wish to enter or wishes to leave their residential care service. The current proposed legislation presents both legal and ethical issues that this writer feels warrant exploration. It is imperative that we in Irish Healthcare begin the narrative on deprivation of liberty, both to ensure that the human rights of those we care for are respected and vindicated, and to avoid costly litigation to an already fiscally burdened healthcare service. This writer has chosen to use the desk based literature review methodology, as while literature research is focused on acquiring theoretical knowledge about a concept or topic, desk based research is used to gather facts and existing research data that help to answer the research question. | en_US |
