The best way to try and ensure that the record of a conversation is 'accurate' is to get whichever party to the conversation did not write the record, to sign the record to confirm that it appears to be right. BMA/RCN/RC(UK) are resistant to that, however.
To use your word from earlier - tricky. Not all families have the same dynamic, so protecting the pt's right to life over the undocumented word of a relative? Yeah... just tricky. Hopefully not too many happen in such a short window like that?

The point is - listening to 'I really would prefer to be dead now. from your dying dad, 'has a deep impact on you': subsequently being 'accused of lying' by 999 leaves you rightly 'furious' if you are [and surely most would be] one of the honest family carers.

I can entirely understand that. Fewer times can be more emotional in life already, without the added insult of such an accusation. I'm sorry if that was your experience.
