Hi Ewonubari,
Upon admission at the facility I work at a Morse Fall Scale is completed. Once the assessment is complete best practices will come up and we can add specific care plans for the patient. We not only utilize bed alarms for people that are a fall risk but we also move the patient to a room close to the nurse’s station. All personal belonging that the patient may need, water, eye glasses, books, and magazines are placed close to the patient reducing the patients need for getting out of bed. “A comprehensive assessment requires not only physical data but also an integration of the biological, cultural, psychosocial, and functional aspects of the person. Inquiries into physiological and anatomical function, growth and development,
