Although district nurses provide care and treatment to adults, they also have children on their caseloads from time-to-time. Obtaining consent for the examination and treatment of children is a complex process, where parental responsibility and the developmental concept of Gillick competence become increasingly intertwined as the child matures to adulthood. In this article, the authors consider the requirements for Gillick competence, and highlight the factors district nurses must consider when determining whether a child is competent to give consent to treatment.
虽然社区护士为成年人提供护理和治疗，但他们的工作对象有时也包括儿童。为儿童的检查和治疗获取同意是一个复杂的过程，随着孩子长大成人，父母的责任与吉利克能力的发展概念越来越相互交织。在本文中，作者探讨了吉利克能力的要求，并强调了社区护士在确定儿童是否有能力同意接受治疗时必须考虑的因素。
