My Download - 18 January 2022
Apologies for missing last week - we are very depleted in numbers in Comms and had to make some difficult decisions about priorities - last week media enquiries, the web, Operational Update and Team Brief made the list! Lots to share this week .... including how to access the new web, details about the mileage consultation, an update on the Belper plans and so much more!

Informal Carers administration of PRN subcutaneous injection in Community Palliative care Guidelines for DCHS staff (G184)

UK statutory law supports this practice within a safe governance structure. To support this in practice “The Derbyshire policy for Informal Carers Administration of an as required subcutaneous injection in Community Palliative care” has been developed and underpins these guidelines for Derbyshire Community Health Service (DCHS) staff.
