Further Details
The Mental Capacity Act 2005 will have a direct impact on about two million people in England and Wales and many more informal carers - and will be particularly relevant to older people with mental health problems.
Those most likely to be affected include people with dementia, people with learning disabilities and people with mental health problems. The Act also has major implications for those in the caring professions. A code of practice with new roles and responsibilities will be introduced across all health and social care professions.
