Dear All
I wonder if any of you can help. We have been asked to find the main
guidelines relating to death certification. We have looked at the GMC site
and also the DoH. Are any of you aware of any legislation, best practice
or professional codes of conduct in this area? We have heard mention made
of a "brown book" - do any of you know anything about this?
Many thanks in advance
