    Peter McCarthy fell from his wheelchair at home on 25 November 2023, was found the following morning, and was taken to hospital with rib fractures and a subdural hematoma. He deteriorated and died on 30 November 2023 from heart failure and pneumonia. The principal concern was the absence of a protocol governing whether anticoagulant medication should be given to a client after a fall without medical oversight.

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Lack of a protocol for medication oversight after client falls

    Wider context from the report

    “Following the inquest Care 4 U have put in place steps to ensure staff do not leave clients alone whilst they wait for ambulances. However, I remain concerned that: 1. On her arrival the carer offered Mr McCarthy his daily medications, which included an anticoagulant. He refused to take it. Following the conclusion of the inquest I sought information from Care4U Healthcare as to what, if any, protocol they have to ensure that clients who have fallen are not given anticoagulant medication without medical oversight. I have been told that medication comes in blister packs and the staff would not know if any medication was contra indicated after a fall. To date no protocol has been provided to the Court to deal with this type of situation. ”
