Capacity Assessments and the Assessment of Voluntariness in the Context of MAiD Legislation: The Role and Responsibility of Psychiatrists

Abstract

Note: It is the policy of the Canadian Psychiatric Association to review each position paper, policy statement and clinical practice guideline every five years after publication or last review. Any such document that has been published more than five years ago and does not explicitly state it has been reviewed and retained as an official document of the CPA, either with revisions or as originally published, should be considered as a historical reference document only.
