Consent is a key concept of the medical field regardless of what procedure is being conducted. While consent may be a formality ensuring we stay ethical, it is also a sign of respect to the patient.
Therefore, consent is required for all medical procedures, unless overridden by a Medical Lead after determination of psychological illness.
The only regular exception to consent is in the event that Nu7, DEA, ISD, or a Combat Medic suspects a disguise, in which case Electroconvulsive Therapy may be performed without consent.
