    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Failure to act upon vulnerability after a fall

    Wider context from the report

    “Whilst at the Village Nursing and Care Home members of staff were to monitor and support Mr Smith’s mobilisation. Although being on notice after his first fall, there were insufficient steps taken to assess and act upon Mr Smith’s vulnerability. Evidence suggested that there ought to be: - 1) a review of the Home’s formal written admissions policy to include verification of the information provided about the suitability of a prospective resident for admission, as well as 2) a review of the Home’s formal written falls risk assessments policy and associated training for staff, together with any other steps that ought to be taken to mitigate the risks of falls. ”
