The coroner on occasions needs to be contacted urgently, out of hours (for instance in the context of requesting permission to proceed with organ donation).  The Worcestershire coroner holds a mobile phone, and can be called out of hours for advice.  His number is written in the ICU doctors office if you do not have it.  Alternatively, contact can be made via the registration out of hours number which is 07961 064236 who will then contact whichever coroner is on call.

Coroners Referral:

Complete a referral via the coroners portal

​

The form also asks for an email address – this needs to be the bereavement office email not the referrers so all communication from the coroner comes via the bereavement office not directly to the referrer.

The contact details for worcester and alexandra bereavement can be found here

 

Once submitted there is an option to print or save the referral... the resulting PDF copy of the referral can be attached to the ICCA record.
