Care Plans: Dying With Dignity Form

Dying With Dignity Form

All our patients had a Dying with Dignity Form which was filled in at our Nursing Home.
The form was only initially filled in by the senior nurse on duty at the time of admission. This was the time to check that the relative and friends details were correct. As many contact detail as possible are required. Ask about after death and whether cremation or burial will be used. The doctor will need to be aware of this. If relatives or friends would like to be present if possible. Religious and cultural needs, if a religion person wishes to be present their details will be needed. The selected undertakers details are kept on file.
