Also - psychologically difficult for clinicians to think they might be getting it wrong, because of the consequences if they are getting things wrong - surely?

It was Mike who had problems trying to get a mistake in his wife's 'medical notes' corrected.

Vital information on my dying wife's "care plan". Despite that I dictated it, a "care co-ordinator" got it wrong twice before she grudgingly put it right! I was also accused of refusing to go to an MDT meeting that I was NOT notified of!
-
That sounds distressing. Did you receive a letter AFTER the meeting had been held inviting, with a historical-date entered? (I was given a signed Bupa referral on 27th June 2013 DATED 10th September 2012. That was on GP file, rather than ACTUAL 21st September 2012 Bupa referral).
-
No. It was recorded in the report of the MDT meeting that I "had refused to attend"!!!
-
That’s horrible, and genuinely insulting.. I’ve had comments made that I’ve ‘declined’ care that I was never offered; usually I find out (notes) that my previous GP declined it without involving me. Or even worse, it’s a CMA (cover my a’se) by a medic who failed to do their job.

I wrote an article for the National Council for Palliative Care, about my wife's last few years. I have considered writing one about all thee shite that happened after her death but no bugger would believe it!

You might be surprised by how many here wouldn't doubt a word if you did write it, Mike. Outside of that, probably not so much though, I appreciate.
-
Yeah would not doubt a word. And the 'refused to attend' 'not engaging' , letters after event etc..are all things Ive experienced too.
