The Importance of an Effective Falls Management Program

Senior living communities report an average of 260 resident falls a year, at a cost of $380,000, not to mention the human toll. Yet 85% of falls can be prevented through an effective falls management program. In this white paper, you’ll learn why you need a comprehensive, interdisciplinary falls management program and how to establish a successful one at your community.

Implementing an effective falls program takes a team effort and involves:

  • Launching preventative assessments and screenings
  • Creating interventions for risk areas
  • Establishing a culture of safety
  • Utilizing a root cause analysis
  • Leveraging Functional Pathways’ CORE4+ programs
