⢠supporting qualifying patients to explore options and to engage with decision making about their care and treatment
⢠supporting qualifying patients to articulate their own views
⢠speaking on the qualifying patient's behalf, as instructed by them, and representing them when requested
⢠accessing records relating to the qualifying patient's detention, treatment or after-care
⢠providing non-instructed advocacy to qualifying patients who cannot clearly instruct their advocate or lack capacity to make specific decisions
