    How this individual concern was interpreted

    PFD Monitor created a concise, searchable interpretation from the report wording shown below. The report was sent to The Care Bureau; that does not assign responsibility.

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Unclear process for escalating cases to obtain medical input

    Wider context from the report

    “2. The process/system for escalation to get medical input was unclear. In the current case, it was accepted with the benefit of hindsight that when a frail elderly person on blood thinners suffers a fall, a medical assessment should probably be done. However, after the morning visit, it was Mr Hay himself who made the decision (despite having suffered a fall and having a diagnosis of dementia) without input from his family. At the time of the evening visit, the care team contacted the son for a decision rather than simply assessing the situation and making a decision. ”

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Failure to complete and clinically review care-plan risk assessments

    Wider context from the report

    “1. The Risk Assessment in the Care Plan is neither completed nor reviewed with nursing or medical input, but includes, amongst other things, actions to be taken when a person is on blood thinners. In the present case, the only scenario covered was in relation to a person who has “heavy bleeding”. The obligation to complete the risk assessment and determine actions falls upon the care team, none of whom have any medical training, aside from basic first aid. ”
