Respect for the rights and dignity of people
MHAPPY professionals respect the dignity and worth of all people, as well as the rights of citizens to privacy, confidentiality, and self-determination.
In case the psychiatrist wants to make your case public (media publication, scientific work, etc.) he/she will get your consent.
MHAPPY specialists will disclose confidential information without the subject's consent only following the law or in the case allowed by law for appropriate purposes such as life-threatening.
MHAPPY professionals are aware that special measures may be necessary to protect the rights and well-being of individuals or communities whose vulnerability harms independent decision-making.
MHAPPY professionals are aware of and respect cultural, individual, and role differences, including those caused by age, gender, gender identity, race, ethnicity, culture, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, disability, language, and socioeconomic status, and consider these factors when working with members of such groups.
