PFD Monitor interpretation

Implement a falls-alert process notifying residents’ surgeries after repeated falls, using fax notification for the agreed practice and direct calls for other surgeries.

Verbatim wording from the response

“The home has devised a ‘falls alert’ notification that will be faxed to the residents doctors surgery should they fall more than once over a 24 hour period. This has been agreed by the Drayton Medical Practice, although I have not as yet received any further response from the two other surgeries that the home uses. In this case the home will call these surgeries direct should a second fall arise within that period. We currently have over 25 residents registered at Drayton Medical Practice which is a substantial amount so I hope that you agree that this is the most important surgery to support us with this protocol.”
