Helping you to prevent falls
A Patient & Family Information Guide
Helping you to prevent falls
All patients are assessed for risk of falls. Based on your falls risk, your care team will add individualized interventions to your care plan. For instance, you may be asked to wear a yellow arm band or a yellow "falling figure" graphic may be added to your chart. These interventions alert your care team that you may be at risk of falling.
We want you to be safe during your visit. Please let us know if you:
- Have fallen recently
- Have difficulty with balance or walking
- Are worried that you might fall during your visit
