At CMC, we are always looking for new ways to raise awareness of the benefits of urgent care planning: among patients, healthcare professionals and the public alike.
Since we launched it, our service has attracted a great deal of interest, from specialist medical journals to mainstream media. CMC has been profiled on national TV, praised in Parliament and has earned a prestigious award for NHS innovation. We have collected the best of this content here:

There isn’t currently a robust way of communicating this information to GPs, specialist palliative care teams, district nurses and ambulance services involved in a patient’s care, or of making the record complete and up to date as the patient’s status and wishes change.
