This webinar was chaired by Baroness Ilora Finlay and the technical host was Prof Wayne Martin. It was about sharing voices in response to COVID-19.

With the imminent roll-out of COVID vaccinations in care homes, the National Mental Capacity Forum will host a Rapid Response Webinar to share knowledge and reinforce good practice in consenting patients for the new COVID vaccinations, and to empower clinicians to have meaningful engagement with vaccine recipients.

This webinar looks at the challenges of implementing the Mental Capacity Act 2005 during the Covid-19 pandemic. It examines specific issues that frontline staff may face, for instance determining whether testing is a treatment, lessons learnt and examples of good practice.
