Fall Prevention
Falls can happen to anyone, at any time and almost any place. They can have bad effects on your health. Falls can be accidental or may result from a physical condition caused by illness, medications and/or risk factors. The best way nursing homes can prevent falls from happening is to always be aware that they can happen and to take appropriate prevention measures.
These findings are publically reported by the US Department of Health and Human Services on Nursing Home Compare. http://www.medicare.gov/default.asp
