Mental capacity assessment evaluates an individual's ability to make informed decisions, particularly in situations that may have significant personal, legal, or medical consequences. Medical experts, typically doctors or psychologists, play a critical role in this process, as they are equipped to assess the cognitive and psychological factors influencing decision-making. The assessment involves determining whether the person can understand, retain, weigh relevant information, and communicate their decision effectively.
