预防住院老年人的福尔斯跌倒对避免受伤和保持独立至关重要。作为一项综合计划的一部分，医疗遥测单位的护理人员与患者及其家属合作，设计并实施了一张预防福尔斯跌倒的教育海报。持续的患者/家属反馈被用来修改海报，直到它对患者有吸引力和有效。这一努力导致在试验期间该装置的福尔斯下降明显减少。
Prevention of falls in hospitalized elderly is critical to avoid injury and maintain independence. As part of a comprehensive program, nursing staff in a medical telemetry unit partnered with patients and their families to design and implement an educational poster to prevent falls. Ongoing patient/family feedback was used to modify the poster until it was appealing and effective for patients. The effort resulted in a marked decrease in falls on the unit over the pilot period.
