By definition, a fall is as any event that leads to an unplanned, unexpected contact with a supporting surface. Most studies indicate that falls are a multifactorial event resulting from multiple risk factors, including unsteady gait, cognitive impairments, medication, and others. Understanding this, Federal and state law are clear that nursing homes must take reasonable steps to prevent the risk of fall in each resident. In this week’s episode, and in honor of Fall Prevention Awareness Day, nursing home abuse lawyers Rob Schenk and Will Smith welcome guest Dr. Mindy Renfro of Touro University to discuss common interventions for the reduction of nursing home falls.
