#Before providing any healthcare treatment, which includes prescribing medication, all health care Operators (physicians, nurses, therapists, dentists, etc.) are required by law to seek and receive valid and voluntary consent from their patient (if the patient is capable).
#If the patient is not capable, consent must be obtained from their authorized decision maker before providing treatment.
