    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Inadequacy of investigation documentation following a safety incident

    Wider context from the report

    “7. I heard a great deal of evidence from the London Ambulance Service in relation to a thorough investigation they had conducted into this case. They had the assistance of an independent clinical advisor and had identified all of the relevant issues. They had taken all of the action required to address those issues. BUPA Care Homes however had provided a one page document headed “Summary of Investigation”. This was the only investigation document ”

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Failure of nursing staff to establish a fallen patient’s medical and medication history

    Wider context from the report

    “5. The Deputy Manager confirmed that the qualified member of staff who attended when Mr Godfrey sustained his fall should have been aware of the increased risk of bleeding as a result of the long term warfarin. She confirmed that he may not have had access to the medication chart. It is my view that a qualified member of the nursing staff who attends a patient who has suffered a fall should make themselves aware of both the patient’s medical history and medication history. ”

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Failure to carry out directed neurological and physical observations after a fall

    Wider context from the report

    “2. The staff at the care home accepted the responsibility of Mr Godfrey’s care following the paramedic’s assessment. They agreed to observe Mr Godfrey during the night. The actual checks carried out by the staff were not in accordance with the direction given by the paramedic. The senior care worker confirmed that she did not examine the swelling or check for alertness. 3. The Deputy Manager who gave evidence at the inquest confirmed that the checks carried out by the staff were not in her view appropriate. She would have expected the pupils to have been checked and checks to ensure that the patient was alert and orientated. ”

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Failure to ensure awareness of bleeding risk after head injury in elderly patients taking warfarin

    Wider context from the report

    “1. Mr Godfrey was an elderly patient who was at risk of falling and who was on long term warfarin. There is an increased risk of bleeding to elderly patients on warfarin who sustain a head injury. Neither the care staff who attended to Mr Godfrey on the evening of the 23rd July 2013 or the paramedic appeared to have been aware of the increased risk of such bleeding in an elderly patient who had sustained a minor head injury. The inquest heard clear evidence from the London Ambulance Service in relation to further training that was to be provided to their staff in relation to this risk. In addition, amendments are to be considered to the LAS guidance, to highlight this risk to all staff. ”
