About this course
When a person dies, the nurse looking after the patient has a duty to inform the doctor immediately. However, it’s best if they are trained to do this so they follow the correct procedure and policy to verify a death.
This Verification of Death course will teach learners who can verify a death, the process on how to verify a death, what equipment is required, and what the documentation should include. Upon successful completion, learners will receive an accredited Verification of Death certificate. Our Verification of Death training should be completed by NHS nursing staff, carers, care home nurses, GP practice nurses, agency nurses and anyone working in the health and social care setting that would like to learn more about verifying a death.
