Respondent positions A position is what this recipient says about the concern when it does not describe a specific action.5
Position
Morphine was considered appropriate because pain was significant, alternatives had failed, alcohol intake had reduced, and prescribing was regularly reviewed.
Disputes the concernThe respondent disagreed with part of the concern or the basis for it.
Position
Existing computerised reviews, weekly prescriptions and consultations were considered sufficient to monitor and control medication access.
Existing arrangements considered sufficientThe respondent said that existing arrangements were sufficient, so no further action was needed.
Position
Earlier mental-health referral or compulsory admission was not considered necessary while the patient refused referral, retained capacity and was not sufficiently disturbed.
No action considered necessaryThe respondent said that no further action was needed.
Position
A practice meeting was not considered necessary because the patient appeared relatively stable and was receiving frequent support and supervision.
No action considered necessaryThe respondent said that no further action was needed.
Position
The paranoid thoughts were considered unrelated to morphine and more likely associated with stress and previous similar episodes.
Disputes the concernThe respondent disagreed with part of the concern or the basis for it.
