Dysphagia Management of Adults (P20)
DCHS recognises the risk to people who have difficulty with eating, drinking and swallowing and that the management of dysphagia is everyone’s business. This policy promotes a multi-disciplinary approach to identifying and managing dysphagia. It is to ensure that all people with dysphagia receive the highest possible level of assessment, care and support to achieve maximum independence, pleasure and meet their nutritional needs, whilst keeping the risks associated with this potentially life threatening condition to a minimum.

Transfers in and the New to Area Assessment Guidelines (G270)
This guidance supports health visiting and admin teams when children transfer into or within Derbyshire. It gives clear guidance on the minimum standard expected of Specialist Community Public Health Nurses (Health Visitors) when undertaking a new to area contact. It outlines the goals and essential components of the new to area contact offered to all families moving into Derbyshire. This document also supports a commitment to ensure evidence-based tools and training are embedded within practice, supporting the national commissioning for outcomes recommendations and offering assurance that the service is focused on personalised and needs-based care. It is expected that Specialist Community Public Health Nurses employed by Derbyshire Community Health Services (DCHS) exercise professional judgement and have clear, documented evidence of the rationale for their decision making if they feel that it is not in the family’s or child’s interest to follow the Best Practice Guidance or policy has not been followed. It is also expected that Specialist Community Public Health Nurses exercise sound professional judgement (following their assessment) in deciding whether or not a client/family should receive additional support and intervention. This Best Practice Guidance should be used in conjunction with other DCHS Children’s and DCHS Trust policies along with The NMC Code.
