In this “in conversation with” Emma Overton, Policy and Practice Development Lead at North East Lincolnshire CCG, we discuss commissioning, joined up thinking, and learning lessons from cases where steps have not been taken to consider how to enable medical treatment to be delivered to those with impaired decision-making capacity.
You can find more about the case of Jacky Maguire we discuss here: (emphasising, as we do in the video, that we use the case to seek to learn lessons); the LeDeR report that Emma talks about can be found here.
Boring but necessary caveat, nothing here constitutes legal advice.
