    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Provide training to all staff on completing the Falls Protocol.

    Verbatim wording from the response

    “Training has been provided for all staff in completing the Falls Protocol however the protocol is written in a way to direct staff completing it in a step by step process. In response to your request for a timetable for action, the new protocol was introduced and went live at Riverview Nursing Home on 15th August 2018 (as a final draft awaiting external validation as we believed it offered a safer and improved response to resident falls). The Protocol was fully (externally) validated on 23rd August 2018.”

    PFD Monitor created a concise, searchable interpretation from the published response wording shown below.

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Introduce and implement a Falls Protocol specifying procedures, observations, neuro-observations, escalation, emergency calls and post-hospital monitoring after resident falls.

    Verbatim wording from the response

    “In responding to your Regulation 28 request we have however taken a more direct ‘Lessons Learnt’ approach and additional measures have now been introduced with a specific ‘Falls Protocol’ including specific procedures to be followed for any resident fall (including falls which may result in head injury). The lesson learnt was that we could be, and will be, much more pro-active in our response to any resident fall.”
