The provision of care to minor patients: A three-party relationship with a specific legal framework
1Centre Hospitalier Universitaire d'Angers, 4 Rue Larrey, 49000 Angers, France.
Abstract:
The provision of medical care for minors can be complicated. On the one hand, the pattern of the traditional family has changed and many parents are separated while retaining parental authority, which can make the pursuit of parental consent even more complex. In addition, French law, in line with international law, has modified the place of minors in the healthcare relationship, acknowledging the importance of seeking their consent. Such consent is sometimes even required for certain medical procedures. This consent from minors may even allow care to be provided to them without the consent of their parents.
