The Fair Treatment Act was designed to ensure patient care did not suffer due to caregiver opinion. Regardless of your impression of the patient as a person or as a member of society, you cannot allow your prejudices or opinions to influence your care. As such, failure to treat the patient to the best of your ability can make you liable for his death. The Fair Treatment Act has nothing to do with pre -hospital care, and the degree of legality in not following standing orders for treatment is not the cause of your liability.
