The guide describes contributing factors and solutions to prevent falls, identified by the center’s project to prevent falls with injury.
The center’s Targeted Solutions Tool helps hospitals to measure and analyze the contributing factors unique to their organizations, based on 30 root causes and 21 targeted solutions.
