Course Overview
The data supporting patient fall prevention is usually present but rarely assembled into a decision. Variation in this aspect of health and pharmaceutical services between shifts and sites is where avoidable harm lives. The teaching approach is deliberately practical: participants build a clinical protocol for the practice within health and pharmaceutical services as they go. The result is the confidence to make and defend decisions about patient fall prevention under scrutiny. A common pattern is strong design of this area of health and pharmaceutical services paired with weak follow-through. It is designed for mixed groups, so that this part of health and pharmaceutical services is examined from more than one functional angle. Organisations that document patient fall prevention properly resolve disputes about it far more quickly. Content is organised around the decisions practitioners actually face in this aspect of health and pharmaceutical services, not around theory headings. It closes by agreeing the smallest change to the wider health and pharmaceutical services agenda that would make a visible difference.
