Post-Death Care Pathway Compliance: Meeting Fuller Inquiry Standards

Understand what care pathway compliance looks like after death and how technology can help providers meet expectations set by the Fuller Inquiry.

Care after death can be fragmented, especially across community settings. The Fuller Inquiry has made it clear that care pathways must be consistent, auditable, and dignified for every individual, regardless of where death occurs.

Flexmort’s suite of tools, including Flexmort Access, AirCool, and CuddleBlanket, are designed to support compliance by providing consistent tools for oversight, documentation, and care delivery.

Key Benefits:

  • Supports joined-up post-death pathways
  • Reduces risk of undocumented or inconsistent care
  • Helps key stakeholders demonstrate compliance with new standards

The Flexmort CuddleBlanket offers portable and discreet cooling in any bed or cot

For those responding to the Fuller Inquiry Phase Two findings, Flexmort provides tools to improve supervision, consistency, and dignity in care following a death, across hospitals, hospices, care homes, and the community. 

The Inquiry calls for statutory regulation to protect the dignity of the deceased across all settings including non-acute environments like community settings and funeral care contexts.

The Fuller Inquiry emphasises that every individual, even after death, deserves dignified and safeguarded treatment, regardless of setting. The recommendations strongly centre the needs of patients and families, signalling the importance of consistent care in hospitals, hospices, care homes, and the broader community.

The Flexmort Access system offers reliable and customisable access support for sensitive areas

Are You Prepared to Reassure Families?

As a society, we owe it to everybody to ensure that they and their loved ones are cared for safely and with dignity after their death.

Sir Jonathan Michael, Chair of the Fuller Inquiry
