The Department of Health and Social Care (through SCIE) are developing guidance for decision-makers, when a person is refusing hospital investigation and treatment, and is assessed by professionals as unable to make this decision, even with support. They are setting up a series of working groups across health and social care plus legal practictioners to help develop it. For details go to: https://www.vodg.org.uk/resource/get-me-to-hospital.html
