Falls management in acute care settings requires a multidisciplinary approach. A successful falls prevention program has leadership support, frontline staff engagement, a multidisciplinary committee, pilot testing of interventions, use of data to monitor falls, staff education and training, and convincing staff that falls can be prevented. When a fall occurs, the policy should include risk identification, care planning, preventative strategies, procedures to follow, and action plans. Risk assessment tools, policies, education, signage, and patient information can help reduce falls and their costs on the healthcare system and patients.
