Reducing falls by appropriately managing pain

  • Care and Support West Gladstone Drive Bristol, England, BS16 4RU United Kingdom (map)

40% of hospital admissions from a care home follow a fall and 25% of falls in care homes result in serious injury. A study also found that there was a 33% risk of mortality within 12 months of a fall for people living in aged care. It is clear that reducing the number of falls within your care home will have a profound impact on your residents wellbeing and the quality of care you’re able to provide.

But how do you drive down falls? Hear from Orchard Care Homes’ Cheryl Baird on how they have reduced falls across their estate by identifying pain earlier for their residents and therefore managing the risks of falls much more effectively.
