About this course
Notification of Deaths and Cause of Death Wording is a free CPD course for medical examiners and medical examiner officers in England, and the attending practitioners they work with. It covers the statutory death certification system in force since September 2024; the fifteen circumstances in the Notification of Deaths Regulations 2019 and the 'more than minimal' test; why national criteria, not local lists, decide notification; modes of dying, qualifiers such as 'spontaneous' and 'non-industrial', and old age and frailty; and the coroner's decision, the bereaved conversation and governance referrals.
