Commentary on the paper ‘Dementia diagnosis and white lies
A Seat Around the Table
The involvement of "people with experience" in research has developed considerably in the last decade. However, involvement as co-analysts at the point of data analysis and synthesis has received very little attention-in particular, there is very little work that involves people living with dementia as co-analysts. In this qualitative secondary data analysis project, we (a) analyzed data through two theoretical lenses: Douglas's cultural theory o…
Indirect payments
This paper reports findings from a study that aimed to explore how practitioners were bringing together the demands of the personalisation agenda, in particular the offer of direct payments (DPs), with the Mental Capacity Act, and to investigate current practices of offering and administering indirect payments for people who lack capacity to consent to them, including the use of 'suitable person' proxies under the new regulations (DH, 2009). The …
Best interests decisions
This paper reports on data collected in 2011 from a national study about the operation of the best interests principle, a key feature of the Mental Capacity Act (MCA) 2005 for England and Wales.

Four contrasting sample sites were selected, in which National Health Service trusts, social care and other organisations were recruited to partici…

The Mental Capacity Act addresses a much wider issue of abuse where a person's right to make their own decisions, and to have proper safeguards and protection if …

The Act will apply to anyone working in the supported housing field or residential care where …
