THE Sun’s Deborah James has helped launch a new online tool for people who are dying to share their wishes around treatment and care.
myCMC lets patients take control of what happens in an emergency, such as whether they would want to be resuscitated or if they wish to die at home.
The NHS scheme, an abbreviation of My Co-ordinate My Care, enables details to be shared between care providers such as 111, out-of-hours GPs and paramedics.
Other details can include emergency contacts, a patient’s cultural or spiritual beliefs, whether they wish to donate their organs and whether they have a pet that needs to be cared for.
