  1. Article: Legal responsibilities relating to isolation.

    Finch, John

    British journal of community nursing

    Abstract Isolation can cause harm in everyday life, even in the most benign conditions. Taking on responsibility for a patient in the community who is isolated can entail a responsibility to steer them on a course, which they might otherwise not have taken and which might redound to their benefit. In this article, John Finch, a freelance journalist specialising in clinical law and ethics, examines some of the legal responsibilities which are added by the effects of isolation to the already heavy burden carried by community nurses.

    Abstract Health problems related to climate change are with us to stay, some say for a good while. The effect of excessive heat on the human frame are manifold and they are encountered first in the home. During hot weather, community nurses are likely to be faced with an array of health issues not encountered in more temperate conditions. Those very health issues can also impact on legal issues. John Finch, a freelance journalist specialising in clinical law and ethics, examines how.

  3. Article: Supervision and restriction of patients at home.

    Finch, John

    British journal of community nursing

    2023  Volume 28, Issue 3, Page(s) 144–145

    Abstract: ... being cared for at home requires separate examination. John Finch, a freelance journalist specialising ...

    Abstract There are laws laid down in mental health legislation, which permit the detention of patients in hospital under clinical supervision. But there is no legislative provision for patients who are cared for at home in association with district nurses. The law relating to the care of such patients comes from the ordinary common law relating to duties of care and their associated standards, to consent to treatment and to confidentiality and privacy of information. Much of established English law is to be found in court decisions relating to claimants who have been in hospital. The law relating to the supervision of patients who are being cared for at home requires separate examination. John Finch, a freelance journalist specialising in the law and ethics of healthcare, takes a look at some of the legal aspects of home care and treatment with a particular eye supervision and restrictions which need to be placed on liberty and movement which would not be required in the absence of vulnerability.

    Abstract As winter draws on it is timely to look at ways in which nurses in the community may be faced with problems, expected and unexpected, when their patients are particularly affected by cold conditions and at the precautions which need to be taken to avoid or lessen adverse effects on their health. As in the case of heat-related risks to health, examined in an earlier article, so too in the case of cold those most at risk are elderly patients and those who are vulnerable due to a pre-existing condition affecting health even in a more clement climate. Cold weather attracts extra legal responsibilities which are examined in this article.

    Abstract Nurses working in the community frequently begin their professional relationship with a patient based on the reason for which their services were initially sought; but, as the relationship develops, community nurses can find that their strictly clinical expertise is not the only factor in the relationship which the patient seeks. This article looks at some aspects of the relationship between practitioner and patient which go beyond the strictly clinical and which attract further legal and ethical considerations. These further responsibilities may not have been examined in detail during training and can be learned only by experience.
