    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Provision of food unsuitable for a soft diet

    Wider context from the report

    “1. Mrs Haley was on a soft diet (described as a “fork-mashable diet” in evidence). Despite this, there was evidence that Mrs Haley had been provided with food items not suitable for her by staff. In particular, on one occasion toast was found in her room. On another occasion, staff had apparently suggested to a family member that chocolate could be given to Mrs Haley. ”

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Failure to supervise high-risk residents while eating

    Wider context from the report

    “2. During the course of her evidence, ████████ (Home Manager) explained that Mrs Haley was assessed as being at High Risk of choking and scored high on the risk assessment that had been carried out. Despite this, Mrs Haley would be left alone in her room to eat because ████████ stated she did not like to have staff present when she was eating; she would then refuse to eat. We heard evidence from a manager at another home that Mrs Haley would eat when she was in the dining room with other residents, where staff could also observe her. It was of concern that Mrs Haley was being left alone in her room to eat when she had been assessed as being at the high risk of choking. ”
