So David Behan is leaving the CQC in the summer? Think I might write to him before he leaves to find out exactly what got changed after he wrote this letter. (Final page).pic.twitter.com/lNoQOEDMrz

Where do you take your lead from these days for what represents good consent practice? I'm just looking to find anything that specifies the need to hand a copy to patient, or auditing the same.
Hi John take a look here https://www.rcseng.ac.uk/-/media/files/rcs/library-and-publications/non-journal-publications/consent_2016_combined-p2.pdf … see page 22
Ah thanks saved me looking it up Page 24 on my copy!
It's page no 22 but the 24th page. No pages ins at the intro
Thank you Mark. A Royal College document? I didn't expect that. How would this sit alongside guidance issued by the likes of GMC, DoH, etc? Is one considered the definitive source? Can't help note it says 'should' be given in that one too. Not even 'must'.
The royal college guidance is the most up to date (Current GMC and DOH guidance dates back to 2008 and 2009). I guess all guidance is should
Is whichever is most up to date the only determining factor? GMC are reviewing their guidelines now (a bit late - that letter above is dated Oct 2014!) but will the torch then just be passed to GMC as the most definitive, when it becomes the latest?https://www.gmc-uk.org/guidance/news_consultation/30001.asp …
I suppose it depends on the context. The RCS guidance interpreted the GMC guidance and is more up to date and practical
ZHH You know my view, Mark; one authoritative source, pls, NHS, etc etc etc
I always take my lead from what I consider to be right thing to do but I’ll have a look and get back to you.
Very kind.. thank you.
