FAQ
A minor 14 years of age or older may be admitted to a willing mental health facility for inpatient treatment related to mental illness, which may include substance abuse as described in § 16.1-336, upon the joint application and consent of the minor and the minor's parent.
The consent form is intended, in part, to provide information for the potential subject's current and future reference and to document the interaction between the subject and the investigator. However, even if a signed consent form is required, it alone does not constitute an adequate consent process.
There is no set age for a 'mature minor', however, generally the minor must be 14-16 years of age and capable of fully appreciating the nature and consequences of the particular medical procedure or treatment.
Except for the purposes of sexual sterilization, any minor who is or has been married shall be deemed an adult for the purpose of giving consent to surgical and medical treatment.
A minor 15 years of age or older may give consent to hospital care, medical or surgical diagnosis or treatment by a physician, dentist, physician assistant, or nurse practitioner without the consent of a parent or guardian of the minor.
However, Virginia does not recognize mature minors as being legally empowered to consent to medical care or treatment. This means that, in most cases, parents still have to provide legal consent to authorize medical care/treatment. This includes vaccinations, medications, and procedures.
