"Respect for Persons" is the phrasing in US research. The problems occur either when someone fails outright or when someone passes but subsequently fails. Dementia, such as Alzheimer's, gets tricky because it is moment-to-moment.
I appreciate the way you teased apart the concerns of a mental state evaluation and psychiatric history; This is an important distinction to delineate.
Worked for at least 3 generations without issues. Creating save spaces makes weak people. The convent is going into the doctors office. If you go in to say no to your treatment you wasted anyone’s time the doc couldn’t see while wasting it on you. and doc will rip clothing off of you. So you get your warning by being asked to do so.
at some point tolerance will become so big, that normal people will have to stop thinking to not offend the handicapped
I absolutely appreciate your approach to this. I am curious, though, about what is considered appropriate in the case of a patient experiencing a full breakdown or psychotic episode? By which I mean, a patient who simply can't comprehend what is going on?
Something to consider: with medical procedures that involve physical pain, such as use of a needle, doctors and nurses will often warn of the physical discomfort, for example going “there will be a sharp scratch”. Yet when running a mental health / depression examination, patients will be faced with mental pain without prior warning. Asking someone who is struggling with ideation about that can make the patient feel more distressed. Similar to the topic of consent covered in this video, what can we learn from physical examination management of discomfort that can be applied to mental examinations?

Yes, 100% agree
Excellent and not at all unreasonable. Treating people with respect.
Is it okay if someone gets a rectal exam twice a week?
Thank you for posting this

It's actually not "battery" because that involves physical contact.
However, the general concept of gaining adequate consent is valid.
