We are looking for a risk assessment. It could be a general one but need to incorporate falls. We have a care plan thought this could be written into mobility. This is for centre based day care. Any suggestions.

The falls risk assessment needs to be a validated tool as this is required for quality review purposes, I would suggest you look at FHROP - COMM

Hi Julie glad you found it, I was just looking for the link to send to you. Did you get the whole booklet produced by the Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Healthcare ? Its called A Guidebook For Preventing Falls and Harm From Falls in Older People : Australian Community Care. Its a valuable resource . Have a nice day Nicole
I cannot believe it has been a full year since I started using Golden Carers. I remember going back and forth mentally if I wanted to try something new or keep on paying for an older resource that we didn't use often and was much more expensive for the entire year. I'm so glad I chose to make the switch and now here I am renewing my membership for the 2nd year. This site is great! Keep up the good work

*Ways how the client and the carer might monitor fall minimisation strategies?
