View source for Second Opinion Appointed Doctor

{{Information-header}}
A doctor called in to agree with the RC when a second opinion is needed under either [[s57]] (for treatment requiring consent ''and'' a second opinion) or [[s58]] (for treatment requiring consent ''or'' a second opinion).

By far the most common use of a SOAD is under s58 to allow medication to continue to be given after the initial 3-month period.
