Change Just in Case medication policy to Debbiebox a NHS Standard practice in GP

Closed 162 signatures

What the petition asks

My mum spent 4 hour dying in pain due to MAR chart missing. Ambulance Crew couldn't give drugs needed. My mum died hospital 1hr pain free. I had to watch her. Just in Case box is NOT standard practice. We want a Debbiebox in place in every GP with MAR, DNS and drugs and comes direct from GP.
The MAR charts was not requested at my GP and was missed out. District nurse request a JUST IN CASE BOX. This GP didn't have a box policy.

The Debbiebox is a palliative care box which will have telephone numbers, drugs, MAR chart and DNR form, syringes it will be done by a GP alone.

Currently each GP has their own policy it should be standard practice so no miscommunication happens resulting in mistakes and someone dying in pain.
This would stop compensation claims and is cost effective.
