Preventing accidents

事故の防止

Learn how to prevent falls, food going down the wrong way, and medicine mistakes, and how to report.

Key points

  1. The danger of falling over or falling from a bed or other place is different for each person. Follow the way of helping that has been decided for each care user. Put the bed rails and the nurse call button in the places that have been decided.

    転倒(ころぶこと)や転落(ベッドなどから落ちること)の危険は、人によってちがいます。利用者ごとに決められた介助の方法を守ります。ベッドの柵やナースコールは、決められた場所に置きます。

  2. At meals, aspiration (food going into the windpipe) and choking (the throat is blocked and the person cannot breathe) happen easily. Make the form and size of the food exactly as decided for each care user. For a person who eats fast, serve a little at a time.

    食事のときは、誤嚥(食べ物が気管に入ること)や窒息(のどがつまって息ができないこと)が起きやすいです。食べ物の形や大きさは、利用者ごとに決められたとおりにします。食べるのが速い人には、少しずつ出します。

  3. If you help with medicine, follow the rules of your workplace. When you give medicine, check the name written on the medicine and the person, saying it out loud. Watch until the person swallows it.

    薬の介助をする人は、職場の決まりにしたがってください。薬を渡すときは、薬に書いてある名前と本人を、声に出して確かめます。飲みこむまで見ます。

  4. A moment when an accident nearly happened and you felt a shock is called a near miss (hiyari-hatto). Even if it is a small thing, do not hide it. Report it. A report is not for blaming a person. It is for making care better.

    事故になりそうで「ひやり」としたことを、ヒヤリ・ハットといいます。小さなことでも、かくさないで報告します。報告は、人を責めるためではなく、ケアをよくするためのものです。

  5. If an accident happens, first protect the care user's safety. Tell the leader or your supervisor at once. When you speak, separate what you saw from what you think.

    事故が起きたら、まず利用者の安全を守ります。すぐにリーダーや上司に伝えます。見たことと、自分の考えを分けて話します。
