Consent Policy (P42)

Consent is a fundamental part of the relationship between NHS staff who deliver care and treatment and the adults, young people and children who access services in the NHS for their care and treatment. “Consent to treatment means a person must give permission before they receive any type of medical treatment, test or examination. Consent from a patient is needed regardless of the procedure, [and the] principle of consent is an important part of medical ethics and international human rights law” (NHS: 2019). “A healthcare professional (or other healthcare staff) who does not respect this principle may be liable both to legal action by the patient and to action by their professional body. Employing bodies may also be liable for the actions of their staff” (DH 2009:5). The aim of this policy is to set out the principles, practice and responsibilities of Trust staff when seeking consent for assessment, examination, intervention (surgical and non-surgical), investigation, treatment and investigative images and recordings.

Risk Management Policy

The aim of this document is to provide clear and accurate direction & guidance to risk management for all staff within Derbyshire Community Health Service NHS Foundation Trust (DCHS). Risk management is the recognition and effective administration of all threats that may negatively impact upon values, standards & reputation of DCHS thus preventing planned objectives that in turn may preclude the Trust in its delivery of high quality statutory responsibilities. Risk management also includes positive exploitation of any opportunity that may present during threat analysis or mitigation. The purpose of this policy is to evidence the importance of risk management to DCHS, maintain a consistent approach to effective risk management, ensure accurate & effective systems and processes are firmly in place to support all staff in the management of corporate and operational risks across the organisation. Provide a single point of reference for information pertaining to all contributing facets, platforms, staff & agencies involved in the management of risk throughout all areas of service provision. DCHS’ risk Management policy seeks to mitigate risks that may threaten delivery of planned strategic objectives and put in place measured controls to manage such risks to as low as reasonably practicable.
