About this course
A CPD programme designed to support safe, lawful, and professionally defensible clinical practice in line with current GMC guidance and UK law. It provides practical instruction on the seven GMC principles of decision-making and consent, emphasising consent as an ongoing, patient-centred process rather than a single administrative step. It addresses the legal impact of Montgomery v Lanarkshire Health Board and applies consent principles to complex areas including mental capacity assessment, best-interests decision-making, and consent involving children and young people. It also examines heightened consent standards for cosmetic interventions, including reflection periods, psychological suitability, and disclosure of aesthetic risks. In addition, the course covers the eight principles of confidentiality, including lawful information sharing, safeguarding and public-interest disclosures, UK GDPR obligations, and information governance requirements.
