ReSPECT e-Learning Course
The Resuscitation Council UK (RCUK) has launched a free, national e-learning course to help healthcare professionals confidently use the Recommended Summary Plan for Emergency Care and Treatment (ReSPECT).
To support best practice in the use of ReSPECT across the UK, the ReSPECT Essentials e-learning course has been made free for learners to access through the NHS Learning Hub.

Useful Training Information Videos
Advanced Care Planning is a discussion with the person regarding preferences and wishes about their future care. It's an ongoing process and should be documented and shared with all healthcare professional’s involved in a patient’s care.
ReSPECT (Recommended Summary Plan for Emergency Care and Treatment) spans across the whole of Leeds and there is a need to consider how it links to the wider Advance Care Planning process.

Planning Ahead Template
The videos below have been developed for primary care and community practitioners, to support the launch of the new Planning Ahead Template which incorporates EPaCCS and RESPECT.
It will allow clinicians to document and share advance care planning discussions and care preferences for any patient irrespective of prognosis or diagnosis.
This template allows recording of these conversations from an earlier stage of the patient’s journey and includes:
- What Matters to Me – key questions designed to help think about what matters to a person and facilitate a better more personalised conversation
- ReSPECT (Recommended Summary Plan for Emergency Care and Treatment) updated to the new national version 3
- Updated version of EPaCCS to support end of life care.
