Do compulsory mental health patients have a right to receive a second opinion on their treatment under Australian mental health legislation (we ask)? It's not a simple answer, and it very much depends where you are: https://t.co/iNlO23dTWH

Dr Jullia Duffy and I have written about Australia's lack of full implementation of OPCAT. We question the government's assumption that private homes can never be places of detention. Disability Royal Commission findings show how important this is: https://t.co/f6YYN08vQw #OPCAT

Should someone who has depression and ALSO has a terminal illness be able to access assisted dying? We think the answer comes down to capacity: https://t.co/Nihkq3KM6a

Here's "E"'s story as told by a Consultant in Eating Disorders Psychiatry, Ty Glover.

"E" changed his life too. She was his first Court of Protection patient + her case led to him becoming a very frequently consulted "expert witness" in COP.
