    Kenneth PERKINS · Prevention of Future Deaths report

    Report summary

    Kenneth Perkins, who had a history of recurrent falls and several co-morbidities, was admitted to Royal Derby Hospital after presenting with left-sided weakness, facial droop and confusion. While confused and lacking capacity, he wandered without assistance despite a risk assessment requiring one carer when mobilising, fell and hit his head, and later died on 11 September 2018 after subarachnoid bleeding could not be treated. The principal concern was the absence of a clear, detailed transfer handover covering his medication, medical history and recurrent falls, and the receiving hospital’s failure to request one, which may have prevented enhanced care and observation being put in place.
