I need to do an in service on fall prevention for all staff. Any ideas? Or any sites that may be helpful? Thanks

There are all sorts of fall prevention programs out there. In Massachusetts we have the Massachusetts Extended Care Federation website and MassPro website which have all sorts of information on falls prevention. We've just started an exercise program to try to cut down on the number of falls. Do you belong to NADONA_LTC? They have some good information as well.
