Wissenschaftlicher Aufsatz aus dem Jahr 2010 im Fachbereich Medizin, einseitig bedruckt, Note: -, -, Sprache: Portugiesisch, Abstract: Doctor s certificate: a doctor s normative act.§In Brazil s recently democratically ruled society, there is a growing demand for doctor s certificates, as well as complaints about them, especially the sick note . In view of this, the present text analyses the doctor s certificate, as a document pertaining to the doctors practice, and which interests not only the patient but various sectors of society, especially the State. Doctor s certificates or declarations have wide legal repercussions and so only doctors recognized by the state are allowed to write these documents. Therefore this type of doctor s note is named here a doctor normative act or a doctor second grade act . Starting then from the normative framework, which supports doctor s certificates and includes them in the category of documents, their essential elements were then identified and a very simple model was outlined. This model can be used as a guide for physicians when writing sick notes or other textual declarations required within a doctors professional area of expertise, and can offer doctors more security by virtue of normative acts. Due to the broad spectrum covered by doctor s certificates involving whom they are addressed to and their specific aims, it is still taken into account the fact that the final format of a doctor s certificate can only be established at the actual interaction between doctor and patient, taking into consideration also the outline agreed upon by the State.
