Media Reviews
'This book is both timely and welcome. Well written, clear and concise this book provides useful and practical advice by highlighting real-life case studies and workplace examples. It provides a much-needed guide for navigating the complexities and intricacies of medico-legal processes, practices and obligations.' Peter Carter, in his Foreword 'This is an excellent book which is long overdue. It undoubtedly fills a gap in the available academic literature and has relevance to all those involved in the provision of health and social care. Throughout the content is well structured and presented in a language that can be universally understood. I have no hesitation in recommending this book as a first-rate publication.' Paul Elliott, Senior Lecturer in Nursing and Infection Control, Canterbury Christ Church University Brief and to the point, and delivers a number of key messages to practitioners about this dual use of their records - useful as a reminder for pressurised health professionals on the treatment (and potentially defensive) value of systematic record-keeping.
