THIS medical consent form for children and young people under the age of 18 years old is available for parents to complete.
Completion of this form is recommended if both parents are overseas, if there is only one parent caring for their child/children or when the child is being cared for by a nominated person who is not their parent.
For any medical encounters in the PCMF in the absence of a parent, the PCMF will attempt to contact the parents, but if this is not possible, this form provides supporting evidence of medical consent.
This consent form should be taken with the child to the PCMF or hospital when the child is taken for treatment.
