When a loved one becomes bed-bound due to illness, surgery, or chronic conditions, safety becomes a top priority. While many people assume falls are less likely for bed-ridden patients, the reality is that injuries can still occur — often during transfers, repositioning, or attempts to move independently. Understanding how to prevent falls and injuries for […]

HOSPITAL ADMISSION REDUCTION PLAN
GOAL: Help clients/individuals age in place and provide them with all the resources to accomplish this goal.
3 Tier Approach
promotion of Health & Wellness
- Complimentary Screens
- Promotion of wellness through educational seminars
- Provide dynamic exercise classes
Screen
Assess blood pressure, ROM, strength, balance through reliable standardized balance measures
(TUG, Tinetti and/or Berg assessments)
If deemed as increased falls risk initiate PT/OT though our falls prevention program
Fall Prevention Program
- Environmental assessment and recommendations
- Assess need for an assistive device
- Medication review and compliance
- Develop treatment plan based on deficits,including implementation of our graded progressive home exercise program
Post Fall Assessment
A history of a fall is a strong predictor of a future fall within 1 year
- Assess/investigate cause of the fall.
- If purely accidental with no increased falls risk -NO INTERVETION REQUIRED
- If now at high risk---INITIATE FALL PREVENTION PROGRAM
Continuum of Care
Traditional Model
- Fall/Medical decline ->hospital-> Rehab center->home care->small percentage go to outpatient clinic or receive outpatient services in the home
- Common problems after discharge include: tendency to be more lackadaisical, decreased compliance with meds/home exercise program/safety recommendations, and fall back into bad habits
Current Model
Fall/Medical decline ->hospital ->possible rehab cebter with limited rehabilitation due to changes in federal regulations ->home care (CHHAs) will play a significantly larger role but certification period cut in 1/2, and financial incentive to provide rehabilitation no longer exists -what impact will this have on the number of visits provided? -we can pick up where the CHHAs leave off -and can reinforce the education initiated by the CHHA- there’s lot of room for progress between no longer being homebound, or qualifying for home care services and achieving previous level of function -we can work on higher level activities and towards community reintegration. Patients do not have to be homebound to receive our services.
