Factsheets

MPS factsheets are short guides to particular medicolegal issues. They provide essential and practical advice for doctors practising in Ireland.

These factsheets provide only a general overview of the topic and should not be relied upon as definitive guidance. If you are an MPS member, and you are facing an ethical or legal dilemma, call +44 113 243 6436 and ask to speak to a medicolegal adviser, who will give you specific advice.
