Completing Form C
•
The referring (base) unit that requests a transfer will be responsible for completing the appropriate forms for each individual journey. Form C is to be completed at the time that a transfer is being requested by the medical, nursing or midwifery staff in charge of the arrangements. If you are the referring unit you will need to complete Form C.
The Transfer Ref No will be allocated by the Cot Bureau Administrator who takes the call. Please
ensure this number is put in the space allocated on the form.
For any sections of the form where there is a please either place a tick (√) if answering Yes or a
cross (X) if answering No.
For any section of the form where there is a list of answers to choose from, please circle the appropriate answer, and specify further if necessary. Once Form C has been completed it should then be brought to the attention of the ward clerk who will fax it together with Form A to the Cot Bureau, at St Mary’s Hospital on 0161 276 6451.
The unit log sheet provided should also be completed at this time, regardless of whether or not a transfer was successful. It is anticipated that Form A will be completed by the ward clerk (or another designated member of
staff) to provide some further details about both the mother and infant. Both Forms A and C should
then be retained in the file provided, as these will be needed in the future for review by the audit
coordinator.
