title: No fall is just an accident.
abstract: Older people in hospital have a high risk of falls. Clinical manager Janet Brown developed a package of improvements that has reduced the number of falls at a mental health and learning disabilities trust. All vulnerable patients are risk-assessed - and every fall is scrutinised.
