About this listen
In this week’s episode of Legally Fond the team look at a case concerning a High Court decision to allow a blood transfusion to be administered to a woman who had previously refused it on religious grounds. Gavin, Pierce and Alex pick apart constitutional concerns, questions regarding capacity and examine the delicate exercise of rights balancing that the courts must master. How far does someone’s right to religious expression extend? Is it ever okay for clinicians to disregard the express wishes of a patient in order to save their life? How do the Irish Courts respond to these literal life and death scenarios? This episode will discuss.
