Freda’s Fall is the story of an elderly lady who has a fall at home and is admitted to hospital and subsequently released, with support from a variety of health and care professionals. The story is told through four e-learning sessions, each dealing with a different aspect of the circumstances of the fall.
Day 1 – 2 Events that led to Freda’s Fall
Day 2 Paramedics visit
Day 3 Admission to medical assessment clinic
Day 8 – 12 Fred’a back home. This session follows Freda who is back at home a few days later. We see some of the changes that have been put in place but also some issues that still need to be dealt with. Freda has visits from a reablement worker and a community physiotherapist, and attends an appointment with her GP.
