The Mental Capacity Act 2005 (MCA) provides a legal framework for
acting on behalf of individuals who lack the capacity to make
decisions for themselves. The Mental Capacity Casebook showcases
numerous real-life case studies in accordance to this Act. Through
the exploration of various mental capacity assessments, this book
highlights the psychological needs of the individuals who are
supported and protected by the MCA. Dr. Tracey Ryan-Morgan, a
Consultant Clinical Neuropsychologist, is the first to bridge the
gap between the individual's psychological requirements and the
legal framework surrounding them. Not only does this book present
true, often complex, mental capacity assessments, it does so with
legitimate corresponding commentaries. Each case outlines the
presented problem along with its background, social context,
psychological matters, the overriding opinion and concluding
learning points. This book provides a unique standpoint, offering
insight into the complexities of the Act and practical guidance on
how to conduct assessments. It serves as essential reading for
those looking for guidance whilst making complex capacity
decisions, such as Clinical Neuropsychologists, Social Workers, and
Legal Professionals.
