In June, Resuscitation Council UK invited their community to win a prize by submitting abstracts of work related to ReSPECT.
The ReSPECT process creates personalised recommendations for a person’s clinical care and treatment in a future emergency in which they are unable to make or express choices.
These recommendations are created through conversations between a person, their families, and their health and care professionals to understand what matters to them and what is realistic in terms of their care and treatment.
The abstracts of work could be about quality improvement, patient and public engagement, approaches to education, or any other challenges the authors had taken on and could be no longer than 300 words.
Congratulations to Dr. Naomi Taylor, Amanda Thorpe, Dr. Ross Smith, Dr. Deborah Box and Dr. Michelle Hills, and Petronelle Eastwick-Field whose abstracts have been selected as the winners! Access the abstracts in full below:
