Do anti-litigation strategies within the provision of home based palliative care enhance the likelihood of litigation?

22 March 2014 1 8K Report

Withholding patient progress care notes in the home by nurses seems to be an issue with carers raising suspicion that they are not being told the whole story

Helen Georgiou

Calling euthanasia palliative care is an anti litigation strategy. If the dose of the palliation medication is increased incrementally then there is no problem with litigation. Carers of course should be informed of why the doses are being increased...this is the responsibility of the 'palliative care doctor/s' Nurses should refer all queries to the the prescriber and not play 'anti-litigation strategies' to please management.
