New rights for teenagers to psychiatric care without parental consent.
The Act introduces changes regarding teenagers' access to psychiatric care. Youth aged 13 and older will be able to use some outpatient services without parental consent, although parents will be informed about the help provided. The changes also concern teenagers' right to information about their health and rules for deciding on treatment in case of guardian objection.
