Informed consent. It's what we as a podcast advocate for--that you, the patient, have the right and the prerogative to make medical decisions for yourselves and your children and therefore have the right to be provided all the information to do so. In this short episode, we interview a mother who was informed and who completed a declination form for her newborn, but her directive was not followed. A nurse administered a vaccination in spite of the verbal directive and the signed form. What happened next? How do we prevent it from happening to others? And how do we get informed to soundly make these decisions? Tune in to find out!
