The Patient's Bill of Rights lists the rights of patients, including the right to information about their diagnosis, treatment options, and potential outcomes. This document supports the client's right to access information about their cancer treatment options. Standards of Clinical Practice provide guidelines for healthcare professionals but do not directly support the client's rights. Advance Health Care Directives and Client's Living Wills are legal documents that outline a client's wishes for end-of-life care, but do not necessarily address access to information about treatment options.
