This video examines the second Mental Capacity Act principle, that a person must be given all practicable help before anyone treats them as not being able to make their own decisions. Learn more: https://www.scie.org.uk/mca/introduct...
This means you should make every effort to encourage and support people to make the decision for themselves. If lack of capacity is established, it is still important that you involve the person as far as possible in making decisions.
The Mental Capacity Act has been in force since 2007 and applies to England and Wales. The primary purpose of the MCA is to promote and safeguard decision-making within a legal framework. It does this by empowering people to make decisions for themselves wherever possible, and by protecting people who lack capacity by providing a flexible framework that places individuals at the heart of the decision-making process - allowing people to plan ahead for a time in the future when they might lack the capacity, for any number of reasons.
