Fall Prevention. Protecting patients from falls and injuries is the responsibility of everyone. In late Summer ’05, UMH instituted a Fall Reduction Program, which is an important safety and quality of care issue. Our program has 3 levels of Fall Risk – Low Risk (0-5 points), Moderate Risk *(6-10 points) and High Risk (>10 points). There are different interventions for each level (see accompanying chart). Patients at Moderate and High risk for falls have a “falling star” magnet placed on their doorframe and will wear a yellow bracelet *(Moderate Risk) or a red bracelet (High Risk) to help identify them. Risk assessments are done on admission, every shift, upon transfer and after a fall by licensed nursing personnel. Patients at Moderate and High risk sign a Fall Risk Patient Information Form advising them of their risk and to seek help for activities. An Environmental Safety Checklist is completed before a patient is admitted to a room by a RN, LPN or Care Associate. A Post Fall Assessment is completed after a fall, as well as entering the incident into the General Occurrence Reporting System. The hospital has purchased many products that will help in protecting patients from injury and reducing falls.

Fall Prevention. So that individuals are not exposed to unreasonable risks of harm associated with falling, Maple Lawn shall: Conduct comprehensive, interdisciplinary assessments of individuals upon admission, and periodically thereafter, to determine whether individuals are at risk for falls and/or accidents. These assessments shall pay particular attention to the need for continence training and maintenance. Develop and implement a proactive, individualized, fall prevention plan for individuals identified to be at risk of falls. Provide individuals with adequate supervision to prevent falls to the extent reasonably possible. Ensure that individuals receive adequate and appropriate assistive devices to prevent falls. Ensure that individuals’ environments remain as free of accident hazards as possible. Fall Reporting Maple Lawn shall require that all known falls or near falls are properly documented and tracked. More specifically, Maple Lawn shall: Immediately after an individual suffers a fall or near fall, ensure that individual is assessed, including performing neurological assessments, and taking any measure necessary to ensure the health and well being of the individual. Ensure that staff investigate falls or near falls and determine the possible cause(s) of the fall or near fall, with particular emphasis on the potential effects of any psychotropic medication, and identify and implement any appropriate measure to prevent similar falls or near falls from occurring. Ensure that each fall or near fall is documented in an incident report and submitted to the Director of Nursing and/or her designee. Each report should completed by the end of each shift, but no later than 8 hours after the incident. Each report shall include, at a minimum: date and time of fall or near fall; specific cause of the fall or near fall; nature of the individual’s injury; location of incident; identity of nursing staff or staff member who witnessed fall or near fall; and any follow-up education recommended for staff members. Within six months of the effective date of this Agreement, develop and implement a comprehensive quality assurance program to track and analyze patterns and trends of falls, near falls, and injuries. Maple Lawn shall develop and implement prompt and effective measures to address patterns and trends that impact health, safety, and welfare of individuals, so as to minimize or eliminate their occurrence in the future.
