The Mental Capacity Act (MCA) is designed to protect and
empower people who may lack the mental capacity to make their own decisions
about their care and treatment. It applies to people aged 16 and over.
It covers decisions about day-to-day things like what to
wear or what to buy for the weekly shop, or serious life-changing decisions
like whether to move into a care home or have major surgery.
