Information and Fire Prevention Guidance in relation to Dynamic Air Flow Pressure Relieving Mattresses in Community (G96)

Dynamic Air Flow Pressure Relieving Mattresses are provided to people who spend extended periods of time in bed or are bedbound due to illness and impaired mobility. This means that if a fire starts or smoke detection activates, the individual using the bed is unlikely to be able to respond/escape without assistance. When the mattresses are provided in a home setting, living alone or being alone in the property is therefore a risk factor for consideration.

Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for The T34 and Bodyguard Syringe Drivers (S61)

A subcutaneous infusion pump is an effective method of administering therapeutic drugs via subcutaneous route, which can no longer be tolerated orally or rectally by the patient. The aim of this SOP is to provide guidance for staff in the use of the McKinley T34 pump across adult services. Using a uniform SOP will reduce the level of risks associated with syringe pump management within DCHS.

Deprivation of Liberty DoLs Policy (P35)

The Mental Capacity Act 2005 aims to empower people to make decisions themselves wherever possible and sets out the steps which must be taken to promote this. Where a person lacks the capacity to make a particular decision it provides a statutory framework for acting and making decisions on their behalf, and in their best interests (see the DCHS Mental Capacity Act Policy and Appendix 3 Tips on assessing capacity) The Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DoLS) is an addendum to the Mental Capacity Act (2005) that came into force in 2009. It ensures that any Best Interests decision that deprives someone of their Article 5 right to liberty (European Convention of Human Rights) is made according to defined processes and in consultation with specific authorities. It applies where a person needs to be accommodated in a hospital or a care home in order to receive care or treatment for which they cannot consent. The DoLS were introduced to protect an individual’s rights under such circumstances, and ensure that any care or treatment that they receive, including where this involves the use of restraint or restrictions, is proportionate to the risk of harm they would otherwise be at and in their best interests.

This standard operating procedure sets out the process by which we will determine, for each patient, for each contact, when it is safe and effective to offer a remote consultation, and when a face to face consultation will be needed. This will ensure that all patients who wish to access remote consultation are able to do so equitably, based on clear clinical decision making.
