Implementing the MCA for people with ASD
This event will reflect on the history that led to the Mental
Capacity Act 2005 and explore in more depth what it means
to have mental capacity and the implications of that for
people with autistic spectrum disorder in order to be able
to make decisions, and how staff can help them.
In particular there will be a focus on the uneven cognitive
profile in autism and the particular issues around choice
making.
The day will include case studies and time to look at
participants own issues that can be raised during the day.
