Hi All, I was looking through a recent coroners case ( https://www.judiciary.uk/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Julie-Taylor-2019-0454.pdf ) Where a learning disability patient deteriorated while in an acute care setting. One of the recommendations was that the Trust should have used a 'reasonable adjustment care plan'. I haven't heard or seen one of these before. So I had a quick look on the internet and found this. http://www.bristol.ac.uk/sps/media/cipold_presentations/workshop3presentation1-linda-swann.pdf Does anyone else use a care plan that they wouldn't mind sharing? Thanks - Claire- Posted

Content ArticleAdverse events and poor health outcomes are continuing challenges for nursing home residents and staff. Research has shown that many resident harms are avoidable and may be caused by situations in which residents do not receive needed care, often called omissions of care. Omissions of care research in nursing home settings is limited and definitions of omissions of care vary. Therefore, the US Agency of Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) has developed a definition of omissions of care for nursing homes intended to be meaningful to stakeholders, including residents and caregivers, and actionable for research or improving quality of care. They developed the definition through a literature review and feedback from subject matter experts and stakeholders in the US. To develop and describe the definition, project staff produced an environmental scan and final report, including resources to help nursing homes operationalise and apply the definition of omissions of care.

Content ArticleIn this Editorial published in BMJ Quality & Safety, Major and Aphinyanaphongs discuss the challenges in translating mortality risk to the point of care. Despite advances in medicine, prognostication remains inaccurate for many patients. Physicians tend to overestimate survival, even in advanced cancer and terminal illness groups. Over half of terminally ill patients express they do not want prolonging of life if their quality of life would decline. End-of-life interventions such as advanced care planning have shown improved adherence to patient’s wishes, improvement in satisfaction and reductions in stress, anxiety and depression, but clinicians remain reluctant to initiate end-of-life discussions with terminal patients if they are currently asymptomatic. Automated systems can complement clinician judgement to prompt earlier end-of-life discussions.

Content ArticleIn Northern Ireland (NI), leg ulcer clinical guidelines were developed by CREST (Guidelines for the Assessment and Management of Leg Ulceration) in 1998 and although never updated were superseded by NICE guidelines in 2006. Leg ulceration affects approximately 1% of the population of the UK, with a further 400,000 people experiencing recurrence. The aim of this audit was to assess the standard of care provided to patients with lower leg ulceration and to understand who provides care and where this care is provided.
