Author Lewer, D. openurl 
  Title Analysing the Mental Health Act Type Journal Article
  Year (down) 1999 Publication Kai Tiaki: Nursing New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 5 Issue 8 Pages 14-16  
  Keywords Psychiatric Nursing; Mental health; Law and legislation; Ethics  
  Abstract Changes brought by the Mental Health Act (MHA) to clinical practice, and some of the problems it has created for nurses, are examined in this article. Compulsory assessment and treatment orders (CATO) and the role of Duly Authorised Officers (DAO), and moral dilemmas that can arise as a consequence of CATOs used by DAOs are examined. The requirement for DAOs to act as patient advocates and to safeguard cultural beliefs are highlighted. The MHA promotes self responsibility and a treatment philosophy rather than detention of the mentally ill.
