Patient Refusal of Treatment Form
Patient Refusal of Treatment Form
The doctor talked to me before I signed this form. The doctor/nurse explained my (the
patient’s) present medical condition very well.
I have been told that based on the doctor’s judgement the recommended management
treatment is necessary to treat/stabilize my (the patient’s) present condition.
The doctor also explained that I can go to nearest hospital’s emergency room anytime
when the need arises.
I will not hold anyone liable in case something untoward happens to me after my refusal;
henceforth my signing of this form was done out of my own free will despite my attending
doctor’s better judgement.
I have read and/or this has been read to me, the above PATIENT REFUSAL OF
TREATMENT/MANAGEMENT FORM and I fully understand everything that is written on this
form.
