Who needs a medical consent form:

1. Minors: Children under the age of 18 typically require a medical consent form signed by a parent or legal guardian to authorize medical treatment. This ensures that a responsible adult is making healthcare decisions on their behalf.
2. Incapacitated individuals: Adults who are unable to make informed decisions due to physical or mental impairments may need a medical consent form filled out by their legal guardian or someone with power of attorney. This allows for appropriate medical decisions to be made in their best interest.
3. Clinical trials and experimental treatments: Individuals participating in clinical trials or receiving experimental treatments may be required to complete a medical consent form. This ensures that they understand the potential risks and benefits of the study or treatment and voluntarily consent to participate.
4. Complex medical procedures: In some cases, specific medical procedures, surgeries, or treatments may require additional consent forms. This can include invasive surgeries, anesthesia, or procedures with known risks and potential complications.
