Supporting and accelerating change through an online 'best interests' training resource and toolkit

This project aimed to create accessible, engaging and up-to-date training materials for clinicians involved in making best interests decisions about feeding tubes for patients unable to make decisions for themselves.

Manylion

The project included filming interviews with leading experts and practitioners on the front line – to ensure accurate accounts of law and guidance, alongside insights into how these were working on the ground.

The e-learning developed included modules on the social and political context of decision-making, accommodating ‘conscientious objection’ to particular outcomes, managing roles and relationships and how staff (and families) experienced witnessing deaths after feeding tube withdrawal.

Funder

This three-year project is funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC).

Canlyniadau

The  project is under on-gong development to reflect a key Supreme Court ruling (August 2018) and the British Medical Association guidance which was published in December 2018
