109.680 Disclosure without minor s consent; civil immunity.
A physician, psychologist, nurse practitioner, clinical social worker licensed under ORS 675.530 or community mental health program described in ORS 109.675 may advise the parent or parents or legal guardian of any minor described in ORS 109.675 of the diagnosis or treatment whenever the disclosure is clinically appropriate and will serve the best interests of the minor s treatment because the minor s condition has deteriorated or the risk of a suicide attempt has become such that inpatient treatment is necessary, or the minor s condition requires detoxification in a residential or acute care facility. If such disclosure is made, the physician, psychologist, nurse practitioner, clinical social worker licensed under ORS 675.530 or community mental health program shall not be subject to any civil liability for advising the parent, parents or legal guardian without the consent of the minor.
