In this episode of Medical Law Matters, Rob Tobin is joined by Dr. Laura Nohavicka, a Consultant in Paediatric Palliative Medicine at Helen & Douglas House Children’s Hospice in Oxford, for an in-depth discussion on media scrutiny in high profile medical treatment cases.
They consider the impact of the Abbasi Supreme Court Judgement; what impact scrutiny from the media has on staff and patients; explore the reasons why families might want to generate media interest and discuss what lessons can be learnt, amongst other things.
