Local Guidance

Additional procedures, protocols and local guidance to support the Core Procedures are continuing to be developed by the South West Consortium and the LSCB Procedures Sub-group.

However, there will always be a need for some localised guidance, either until regional guidance is completed or because of distinct local needs.
