ACP Communication skills prompt cards

We have taken delivery of the newly published communication skills prompt cards. The cards have been developed as pocket-size resources to support staff with clinical conversations around care planning, deterioration, dying and CPR. This print run has been funded by PATCH.

Feedback on the cards is very important, a QR code has been added to the card which links to a very brief anonymous feedback questionnaire. When cards are distributed can the QR code please be pointed out directly to the recipient to request their feedback.

Cards will go out to community nurses and ANPs across the 6 HSCPs in November.

A power point version of the card is available for teaching.
