Fall prevention is a cornerstone of patient safety and injury prevention in any healthcare setting, especially for patients who are elderly, weak, disoriented, or on certain medications. A comprehensive fall prevention strategy includes multiple layers: keeping the bed in its lowest position, ensuring call lights and personal items are within easy reach, installing bed and chair alarms for high-risk patients, using non-slip footwear, maintaining clear and well-lit pathways, and ensuring side rails are used appropriately according to the patient's assessment and facility policy. These environmental and behavioral controls are fundamental nursing responsibilities to protect patients from harm.
