MEWS implementation: Increased staff confidence. 96% of staff said “improved my nursing skills”. Staff also reported that it helped them to “speak the same language” as acute trusts and ambulance staff.
Recognising the deteriorating patient• Have all observations (including appropriate
recording of Absent (A) or Refused (R)) been completed at the prescribed frequency?
• Have all scores for individual parameters been calculated correctly?
• Has the overall score been calculated correctly each time all observations have been completed?
• If any single parameter score was 3 or the overall score was 4 or higher, did escalation occur in accordance with the MEWS pathway?
