We are excited to announce that the Staff Learning Module “The Fatal Five” is now live on the Open Future site. If support staff can understand the early warning signs of the Fatal Five – they can save lives. Watch this trailer to learn more:
This module focuses on the five most common preventable causes of death for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities: aspiration, constipation, dehydration, seizures, and sepsis. The module emphasizes the importance of understanding an individual’s baseline, or their typical behavior when healthy, to recognize subtle changes that could indicate a developing health problem. By recognizing these changes and advocating with and for people, support staff can ensure early intervention prevents these manageable conditions from escalating into life-threatening situations.
On completion of this module your staff will be able to:
Explain the five preventable conditions that pose the most significant risks to the people you support.
Understand the importance of knowing baselines and how changes from baseline often signal underlying health issues, for which early detection can prevent conditions from worsening.
Describe the key causes, signs, and symptoms of the Fatal Five and how they can be recognized, monitored, and prevented, therefore significantly improving the health and outcomes of people supported.
Provide effective communication and advocacy bridging communication gaps between people supported and healthcare professionals to ensure medical concerns are properly understood and promptly addressed.
