We have been struggling with our fall rate on our inpatient oncology and bone marrow transplant units. We use the Hendrich fall risk assessment tool. More than half of our falls are patients who score low on the falls assessment tool. We already do hourly rounding and use bed alarms, video monitoring and sitters, as appropriate. The problem is that we have so many patient falling who are not high risk and we can't put everybody on a bed alarm. Does anybody have ideas/interventions that have decreased fall rates?
