How To:

COMPLETE A FALLS INCIDENT AND ASSESSMENT FORM.

Once you have logged in –

Click on Risk Management.

Click on Falls Reporting and Analysis.

When you have chosen the resident, their photo will appear.

Click on New Falls Report to complete an incident form on a new fall.

Check the date as todays date will automatically appear in the box.

Complete all the boxes on the form.

Scroll down to reveal the rest of the form.

Remember: A controlled fall (where a resident is assisted to a lower level e.g., floor or chair, by a member of staff) still needs to be recorded as a fall.

You can document that it was a controlled fall in the Description of Events box.
