Lisa, Would you be able to elaborate on the legal issues that you mention pertaining to Australia. Would be interesting to hear from others regarding the legal issues in their countries. I personally believe that all health professionals have an independant as well as interdependant relationship - or that's how it should be if we all have the same goal which is to optimize the care of those we work for.
