   I also have received a sample. I am needing feedback, or reviews of the product. I work in a very rural hospital. Many of our techniques are old and not recommended anymore. Thanks in advance! Meg,RN

   Meg,Rn replied to proud nurse's topic in General Nursing

   If I have a pt that is non-verbal I use the FACES scale. Heart rate and BP can also be indicators of pain. Especially if they are more elevated than what is the PTs normal.

3. What is the first thing you do when you put a fall-risk pt in the bed?

   In our facility when a pt is considered a fall risk they get red non slip socks, three side rails and a bed alarm. There is also a magnet on the door jam at eye level that says FALL RISK
