    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Failure to check food records before assessing food refusal

    Wider context from the report

    “(1) The record keeping was inconsistent and lacked detail on general wellbeing. (2) The volume of forms to be completed meant that there was not a single document from which a holistic view of him could be obtained. (3) Assumptions were made regarding generally refusing food when if the food records had been checked it would have been noted that he consistently refused the fourth meal of the day until the 28th July 2020. (4) Advice from the GP on 15th July 2020 were handed over orally at a ‘huddle’ and no record was kept as to this being mentioned. (5) Following the GP’s visit, no action planned regarding monitoring his fluid or food intake was created nor was any instruction placed in his room to prompt monitoring. (6) The inconsistent and sometimes non-existent record keeping meant that Mr Dickinson was not assessed as deteriorating until 48 hours before his admission to hospital rather than 5-6 days before he began refusing lunch and evening meal. ”
