SOP for IV Administration of Diuretics to Heart Failure Patients in DCHS North Community Hospitals and CRH Same Day ECU (S89)
The Aim of this SOP is to provide heart failure patients across Derbyshire access to IV drug treatments without the need for attendance at an acute hospital
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.
Temperature Monitoring of Medicines Storage Rooms SOP (S74)
Aim of SOP; to reduce risk to patient safety by monitoring exposure of medicines to high temperatures. DCHS accepts that the storage of medicines may exceed 25°C in exceptionally hot weather. However, all staff must follow the actions outlined in this SOP to reduce this risk.
