    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Failure to effectively communicate nil-by-mouth and PEG-feeding concerns to care staff

    Wider context from the report

    “Mr Costello was nil by mouth and PEG fed. His family raised concerns that Mr Costello had told them he had been drinking water from the taps in his bathroom. Evidence was given at the inquest by the Nursing Home Manager that such concerns were communicated to all staff. However, further evidence given at the inquest showed that such communication was not effective (the nurse in charge and the two care assistants who were on duty on the morning Mr Costello was taken to hospital, all denied being aware of such concerns). ”
