Best Interests Decision

A Best Interests Decision is a judgment made when choosing what's most appropriate for someone who may not be able to make decisions for themselves, such as due to illness or incapacity. It involves carefully considering their needs, wishes, and feelings, along with their safety and well-being. The aim is to act in a way that benefits them the most, respecting their dignity and rights. This process ensures decisions are made ethically and thoughtfully, prioritizing the person's health, comfort, and personal preferences while adhering to legal and professional guidelines.
