    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Lack of written guidance for referrals to outside agencies such as SALT

    Wider context from the report

    “i. It is clear that although there is verbal training given on referrals to outside agencies, such as SALT, there is no written guidance that can be easily referred to when incidents arise. There is also no refresher training on the policies. Due to this there may be another occasion in the future when a referral to the SALT team is missed which could result in a future death. ”
