This text was developed out of years of research and training on the 69 sections of the Mental Capacity Act 2005 (MCA) in order to make the legal terminology more accessible and share what the MCA looks like in practice. It offers seven chapters with case scenarios, grids, forms, and helpful tools in order to help individuals gain confidence in practice and know how to challenge poor practice. This book is essential reading for care home staff, nurses, doctors, social workers, care managers, advocates, family members, and people affected by the MCA.
