Recovery/Treatment Planning

Every person has the right to be actively involved in developing his or her own recovery plan and to get services that provide specialized treatment suited to his or her disorder.

This means that the person has the right to attend (and to bring a chosen advocate to) treatment team meetings and to ask questions about the different types of treatment available, i.e. the pros and cons of each treatment.

The treatment team cannot just tell the person what treatment he or she has to accept.
