Abstract
The provision of healthcare is inherently linked to interventions in the physical integrity of the patient, as well as interventions in their other rights, which occur during diagnostic, therapeutic, and nursing procedures as part of healthcare delivery. From the perspective of criminal law, the lawful provision of healthcare is reflected in circumstances that exclude unlawfulness.
