Obtaining Informed Consent: Dr Eleanor Fallon, MD
Description
Today we’re going to talk about obtaining informed consent from patients. It’s a situation that most clinicians, especially junior residents, find themselves in on a daily basis. This episode should serve as a good basic review of the informed consent process and the components that should be included in your discussion with patients.
