2/2 had many complaints about patients from Mid Staffs being put on LCP. Families/patients have no idea they r on it, or why they on it!
@Jarmann @rivkahmiar @curethenhs This is essentially a medical intervention without consent, albeit using inactive nature to justify. Wrong!

@C7RKY@jarmann@rivkahmiar@curethenhs providing food and fluids and antibiotics, taking BP etc at EoL can be considered harmful. -
@katemasters67@jarmann@rivkahmiar@curethenhs Appreciate there are times it's right. Don't subscribe to docs imposing LCP w/o consent tho. -
@C7RKY@jarmann@rivkahmiar@curethenhs really worries me when I hear relatives saying 'I did not give consent' for LCP- consent not needed -
@katemasters67@jarmann@rivkahmiar@curethenhs I don't disagree at all. Just think the concept of consent not being needed is spurious. -
@C7RKY@jarmann@rivkahmiar@curethenhs I feel passionately that people deserve ALL info. -
@katemasters67@jarmann@rivkahmiar@curethenhs At ALL times. It's a legal requirement. Not a corner that can be cut, regardless of pressure -
@C7RKY@katemasters67@jarmann@rivkahmiar@curethenhs < covered by civil law, acting in best interests I believe? -
@JFr4ser@katemasters67@jarmann@rivkahmiar@curethenhs Last point is pertenent. Trust medical world to act in best interests at MidStaffs? - 14 more replies

@C7RKY@jarmann@rivkahmiar@curethenhs providing treatment needs consent, withholding treatment that doc considers harmful needs no consent -
