New Fall Prevention Policy and Procedure-SEE EDUCATION BOARD IN PCU BREAKROOM TO SIGN OFF ON

You may have already seen the new yellow wrist bands on patients and signs outside patient rooms. On the Bulletin Board in the PCU break room there is a review of the new Policy and Procedure as well as a sign off/attendance sheet that you all need to sign. The Board is generally changed monthly by educational services so time is of the essence. This is all part of best practice for our patients, new to the policy is the HOMESAFEHOME Tips to Improve Home Safety that will will provide at discharge to patients so this is a slight change to our current practice but the items on the sheet are things that all of us review but there is no written education provided for discharge...problem solved. Thanks for all each of you do to give good care.
