On the Insufficiencies of the Current Legislative Regime Regarding Physician-Patient Mediation in the Professional Liability of Physicians. A Critical Analysis of the Polish Solution

<p xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" class="first" dir="auto" id="d11328730e64"> The article presents a critical opinion on physician- patient mediation conducted in the context of proceedings on the professional liability of physicians. The starting point is the Act on Medical Chambers, which provides for the possibility of conducting a mediation between the accused physician and the aggrieved patient. This regulation is unique in the region. Its specific measures, such as, for example, the choice of a mediator among physicians, have undergone a critical assessment in the literature. As a rule, the need for the functioning of mediation in the context of professional liability is not called into question. However, a thorough analysis of the assumptions of mediation and restorative justice and the function of professional liability of physicians suggests going a step further. Although the physician-patient conflict certainly requires conciliatory solutions, it seems that the disciplinary regime does not provide an adequate foundation for agreement because it is unable to secure the aggrieved person’s interests. </p>

@rainspirit11 I think in some severe cases, family can petition for power of attorney to make medical decisions. You might try re-posting and using hashtags like #Eldercare #MedicalEthics #MedicalLaw #caregivers #Caregiving etc. And, try doing a search within those hashtags to see if you can find people who are familiar with this issue. I feel like the issue you're dealing with is not uncommon in seniors. Good luck!
