Sponsor's own description
When a person becomes seriously ill health professionals treating them need to make decisions quickly. They may have limited information about the person's medical history or about their wishes about treatment. To help health care professionals decide what is the best treatment for that person Emergency Care Treatment Plans can be used. These record what the person would or would not want to happen in certain situations. The plans are usually written by the person's doctor after discussing it with them. One type of plan, called ReSPECT (Recommended Summary Plan for Emergency Care and Treatment) is used in many National Health Service hospitals in the UK. However, it might be better to write these plans when the person is living at home before they are admitted to hospital. ReSPECT forms are now being used by GPs and other primary care staff in the UK. This project plans to study the ReSPECT process in primary care to determine how, when, and why it is used, and what effect it has on patient treatment and care. It will use a mixture of methods for collecting information. The investigators will interview patients, their families, GPs and care home managers to ask them about their experience of the ReSPECT process. To get a wider range of views, the investigators will also speak to groups of other health professionals, patient organisations and faith leaders, and carry out national surveys of GPs and the general public. The study will also look how at patient records to see how the ResPECT process makes a difference to decisions about medical treatment when a person is seriously ill. The information from these different methods will be brought together at a stakeholder meeting and will be used to work out how the ReSPECT process can work best to improve patient treatment and care.
