In this episode it is my pleasure to talk with Anna about her experience at the Court of Protection. I hear how Anna and her family were unprepared for the experience and we explore the tension between deprivation of liberty and appropriate compassionate care and supervision of a person.

This is the first in a series of three podcasts; in the next episode I talk with Anna’s sister Mary about how it felt to experience the Court of Protection and in the third I talk with Victoria Butler Cole KC who explains the terminology and legal framework that underpin deprivation of liberty safeguards.

If you are a team looking to provide better end of life care, or set up a one off or complete education programme in end of life care head to www.speakformelpa.co.uk where I provide details on how I can help you. You will also find information about my Lasting Power of Attorney consultancy and the talks I offer for organisations.
