    Anne Shirley Scott · Prevention of Future Deaths report

    This summary was generated using AI from the published report. Please read the original report for the complete account.

    Report summary

    Anne Shirley Scott had an unwitnessed fall and was found at home on 29 August 2014. She was admitted to hospital with acute kidney injury secondary to rhabdomyolysis, but her renal function deteriorated and she died on 19 September 2014 after discharge for end-of-life care. The principal concern was that care providers using a Telehealth monitoring device lacked the training to understand its information and take appropriate action, including identifying a urinary tract infection linked to confusion and vulnerability to falls.

    How this individual concern was interpreted

    PFD Monitor created a concise, searchable interpretation from the report wording shown below. The report was sent to Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly Safeguarding Adults Board; that does not assign responsibility.

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Lack of care-provider training to operate, interpret and respond to special health monitoring devices

    Wider context from the report

    “1. That special health monitoring devices are being used to monitor health conditions in patients who are receiving care in the community. However the care providers do not have the necessary training to be able to understand how the device operates, the information it provides and appropriate action to take, dependent on the information from the device, in conjunction with other observations. At the inquest we heard that this matter was referred to the Safeguarding Adults Board and some learning points had been identified for the care providers. In particular, it was known that Mrs Scott was prone to urinary tract infections and whilst suffering from these infections Mrs Scott was known to become confused. A special health monitoring device (Telehealth) was in place. The care provider failed to identify the urinary tract infection prior to admission. These were addressed in the Adult Safeguarding Board learning points. ████████ (Social Worker) and ████████ (Care Provider Representative) confirmed changes were being considered but could not confirm if recommendations were being implemented. Both the representative of the Safeguarding Adults Board and the care provider consider that a Regulation 28 report would assist in embedding the Safeguarding Adults Board recommendations which had countywide implications. ”
