this should be made more clear to all patients of all ages, throughout life. they can't force you to do anything, or do anything to you that you don't want them to do

Nope. In medical, you educate and advise, the patient decides. Then it’s documented and you move on to the next patient.

In diabetes this is often seen as a foot that is now getting amputated after years of noncompliance with medical advice, but again, all you can do is educate. People decide their own actions for themselves.
