知情同意（Informed Consent）的法律責任核心是確認病人具備簽署能力（competence）且出於自願（voluntarily）。護理師的角色是見證人（witness），確保上述過程符合規範。醫師負責解釋手術風險與細節，護理師不可代勞。若病人意識不清，護理師不得見證簽署。這些規範旨在保障病人的權益與法律權責明確。
The nurse's primary role in informed consent is to witness the client's signature, ensuring the client is competent and signing voluntarily. While the nurse verifies readiness, explaining surgical risks is the physician's responsibility. This process protects the client's legal rights rather than shielding the provider from liability.
