    Report summary

    Blanche Audrey Knowles, who had multiple health conditions and was receiving nursing care, suffered burns when an inadequately checked hot drink spilled into her lap. She later became frail and died on 1 September 2023; the burns contributed to her death. The principal concern was that staff had not been adequately informed or trained about cooling burns under running water.

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Failure to adequately convey and proactively flag the importance of cooling burns by running water to nursing staff

    Wider context from the report

    “Whilst it was clear from the written and oral evidence provided to the inquest that measures had been implemented to address the risks from hot drinks, for example by the purchase and use of thermometers, upon questioning, the matter of the importance of assisting an individual who has suffered burns by way of ‘cooling by running water’ as noted by the Ambulance staff did not appear to have been adequately conveyed to staff, be that through training or by way of clear communication as operational matters/requirements in the nursing care context. The burns suffered by Blanche contributed to the cause of her death and whilst it was not established that the recorded failure to apply ‘cooling by running water’ to her injuries would have made a material difference, I remain concerned that the clear importance of applying ‘cooling by running water’ does not appear to be proactively flagged in relevant policies/procedures or by active practical/operational communications to staff. ”
