15 Aug Case Study 2
Questions:
- Do you think Leonard has grounds to sue Dr. Farrah-Fowler for breach of express contract?
- Would your decision be different if, after signing the consent forms, Leonard orally told Dr. Farrah-Fowler that he would consider a blood transfusion, if necessary?
- Would your decision, based only on the written forms, be different if Leonard was 17 years old when he signed the hospital forms?
In developing your thread, you may need to research/consider such issues as informed consent, express contract, capacity to contract, and a patient’s right to deny medical treatment. Use the words “Breach” or “No Breach” in the subject line of your thread, reflecting your conclusion on the initial question.
