Haw. Code R. § 11-175-33 - Right to informed consent to nonemergency treatment
(a) Mental health and substance abuse
programs shall obtain informed consent to treatment before nonemergency
treatment of a consumer commences except for a person specifically ordered by a
court to be involuntarily treated.
(b) A signed consent to treatment form shall
be placed in the consumer's clinical record and a copy shall be given to the
person providing consent.
(c) When
a consumer is clinically determined to be unable to consent or not consent to
nonemergency treatment because of incapacity and no guardian or
attorney-in-fact for health care has been appointed, the program shall petition
the court for a guardian to make treatment decisions.
