Contiguous or non-contiguous buildings, properties, parcels, leases, structures, installations, pipes, or pipelines under the. ownership or operation of the same person may be considered separate. facilities. Only this definition governs whether a facility is subject to this. part.
Any person who is eighteen years of age or older, or is the parent of a child or has married, may give effective consent for medical, dental, health and hospital services for himself or herself, and the consent of no other person shall be necessary.
A reasonable interpretation is that State law, and specifically the Stateâs medical consent law, should be deferred to for purposes of defining who is a minor. For example, if an 18 year old can consent to immunization under a State's law, that 18 year old is the person who should be provided a copy of the VIS.
