Patients, Families Or Doctors

Please correct me and give me some advice about writing. Thank you very much!!!

Patients, Families Or Doctors, Who Should Be The Dicision-Maker?

With the improvement of medical and health awareness, people's concept of medical consumption is constantly changing. A consumption habit with clear demand and purpose is gradually taking shape. Although people's purpose and autonomy in the process of medical treatment avoid the waste of medical and health resources caused by blind consumption, they are also prone to disagreement with doctors in the process of diagnosis and treatment. And who should be the final medical decision maker has sparked heated discussions in the society.
Many people hold the view that the patient’s opinion is the most significant and decisive because they know best what they need. For them, the most important thing at the moment may not necessarily be survival, but the financial burden and quality of life of their loved ones. They will take their physical state, economic situation and social relationships into consideration before making what they think is the best dicision for themselves and the people around, and such a decision should be respected. Furthermore, patients have the right to participate in and make decisions about their own medical care, so respecting their choice reflects the respect for individual autonomy and the maintenance of dignity. Take euthanasia as an example, many late-state patients request it because it allows them to maintain a natural and intact state of life until the end of life, thus they can pend the last time of life with peace of mind and maintain their own dignity. In this case, when the choice is reasonable and feasible, medical staff should adopt it, rather than being stubborn about their own opinion with authority.
Patients do play an important role in medical decision-making, but most people believe that doctors always represent the authority in this field. Although the medical literacy of modern people is much higher than before, medicine is such a profound subject that it’s difficult for non-medical professionals to keep abreast of the latest medical advances. Therefore, medical staff who have undergone systematic study and training can judge the real situation of the disease more accurately than patients. What’s more, decisions made by doctors are not only more professional, but also more objective than those made by patients. Patients may, for a variety of reasons, make decisions that are not the result of thoughtful thinking, but are on a whim or in an emotional state, which often has irreversible consequences. Because of the concept that life is sacred, doctors always look at the problem from the perspective of health and interests, and can more calmly and accurately make decisions that are beneficial to patients.
There is a saying goes, it is a family matter when a person is sick, which suggests that family opinion is also an important factor in medical decision-making. Normally, the health status of patients is not only related to their personal life, but affects the mental state and life quality of their loved ones. Besides, some patients may be in an emotional state when they make decisions. For example, they have just quarreled with their families, or they want to resolve the conflict within the family by hurting themselves. At this time, the opinions of family should be considered to prevent patients from making decisions that they will regret.
In actual clinical diagnosis and treatment, who would be the ultimate dicision-maker should depend on the situation and ethical analysis when there is disagreement. First of all, it is necessary to determine whether the patient has the ability to make autonomous decisions. Those over the age of 18 have the ability to make independent decisions, while those under the age of 18 do not. When the patient has the ability to choose, but cannot agree with family, the patient's opinion should be considered first. When the patient does not have or loses the decision-making ability, the decision-maker should be his family. And if there is disagreement within the family, the views of family representative, such as father in most cases, should be considered first.
When the best plan of the medical staff is rejected by a patient or family member with normal ability to choose, they should find out the real reason for the rejection, and then do a targeted explanation. The choice should be respected and detailed medical records should be made if this kind of effort fails. But if a patient and his family members make a decision that goes against their life value and causes harm to society and others, medical staff can use the right to interfere such dicision and take measures to prevent uncontrollable consequences from happening.
All in all, no matter who makes the dicision, the interests of the patient should always be put first and the patient's autonomy should be fully respected.

Many people hold the view that the patient’s opinion is the most significant and decisive because they know ~~best~~ what they need. best.

This just makes it flow better and makes your point come across more easily :)

For them, the most important thing at the moment may not necessarily be survival, but the financial burden and quality of life of their loved ones.

They will take their physical state, economic situation and social relationships into consideration before making what they think is the best dicision for themselves and the people around, and such a decision should be respected.

Try to use some different words for 'decision' such as 'conclusion' or choice' to add some variety into your writing :)

Furthermore, patients have the right to participate in and make decisions about their own medical care, so respecting their choice reflects the respect for individual autonomy and the maintenance of dignity.

Take euthanasia as an example, many late-state patients request it because it allows them to maintain a natural and intact state ~~of life~~ until the end of life, thus they can pend the last time of life with peace of mind and maintain their own dignity.

Try to avoid repeating the same words alot within a sentence

For someone who isn't a native English speaker this is amazing! The depth in which you talked about this topic is very impressive and there were little to no mistakes! Overall, be careful when you use the same word alot. Prohaps search up synonyms (words that mean the same) to use instead :) Well done
