    How this individual concern was interpreted

    PFD Monitor created a concise, searchable interpretation from the report wording shown below. The report was sent to Family of the deceased; that does not assign responsibility.

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Failure to provide the receiving triage nurse with access to and sight of the paramedic pro-forma

    Wider context from the report

    “1. When Mr Moulton was admitted to A & E on the 13th February 2013, critical information was conveyed by means of an audible handover from the paramedic to the receiving triage nurse. Following this incident, the Pennine Acute Trust now requires the receiving triage nurse to have access to and have sight of the paramedic pro-forma with the additional requirement that those actions be documented. It would be helpful if an additional copy of the paramedic pro-forma could be given to and remain with the receiving triage nurse. ”

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Failure to notify the hospital trust of ambulance presence within hospital grounds

    Wider context from the report

    “2. At approximately 5pm on the 13th February 2013, a number of administrative staff, whilst en-route home saw Colin Moulton within the hospital grounds near to the Irwell Unit. They perceived him to be ‘ in difficulty’. One of the staff members called for the assistance of an ambulance which duly attended and a paramedics on board apparently were unable to locate Mr Moulton. Had the Ambulance Trust notified the Hospital Trust of their presence within the hospital grounds, this may have tied in with earlier concerns in relation to Mr Moulton of which the Hospital Trust was aware. The Ambulance Trust is requested to consider whether in the future, third parties such as Hospital Trusts might be notified in such circumstances. ”
