My local hosp put up signs to say they’d prosecute anyone recording after a secret recording exposed poor care.

Prosecute them with what, I wonder? The key to our right to record seems to be based on the fact that it's our data under discussion during consultations. And nobody can prevent us from recording our own data. Outside of that confine, I'm less sure on the situation though.

I do not understand why at the end of every consultation a copy of it doesn’t go into the notes & a copy to patient. Protects everybody.

I sense a growing support for that idea on both sides. Currently, medical records are at the heart of what is deemed to be the truth. But when one side only holds them, that 'truth' has a horribly frequent habit of changing. I already record every one, so I'm in!

Many communication issues would be resolved, IMO, if people had the opportunity to play what was said, rather than rely on the recollection of what they felt.

I am in too. It’s a great idea. Not just for ‘evidence’ but also to listen back ‘your’ consultation cos they’re often complicated.

it's ridiculous not to when it is known how little of important information is retained from a stressful appointment! I go and take notes for ppl just so they can go back over what was said. Have corrected some potentially damaging recollections!

clearly demonstrated in research studies that even with patient, sensitive communication, using approved techniques and with observers rating quality of consultation/conversation, people (especially at times of stress) often forget/misunderstand much through no fault of own

EXACTLY! Two stories spring to mind. Someone who did not know they had a terminal diagnosis & discovered as a shock 4 yrs later. A recording of the consultation would have ensure that if that info was shared it was accessible in future and

having taken notes at consultations at patients' request on more than one occasion and having to explain to them more than once that the outcome was both more positive and informative than their recollection which simply did not fit the notes taken for them!

Completely agree. Have several examples where notes played a similar role too. Recording allows for the chance to listen again once you're back home, in comfortable, less stressful surroundings. Much easier to absorb info that way, imho.
