You know your residents; we know the equipment. Call us with the unique caregiving challenges you face, and we’ll do our very best to help you find solutions.

Your Partner in Fall Management Creating an environment that is both enjoyable and safe for your residents requires a daily focus by all members of

your community teams.

Your team cares about reducing falls, and your partners at Direct Supply are committed to bringing you products, information and education that support your team’s goal of promoting resident safety.

Although research demonstrates that not all falls can be prevented, there are evidence-based interventions that may be effective in reducing the risks that contribute to falls, such as multi-factorial fall risk assessments, individualized interventions, standardized systems and processes, environmental modifications and staff education.

In this guide you’ll find quality items you can depend on to help you create a safer environment – with options to help you address various types of fall risks, based on the needs of each individual resident.

Resident Room Product Considerations PageExamples of some of the important areas to check include: ■ Bed is locked; height is adjusted appropriately for transfers ■ Handrails for transferring are firmly attached at an appropriate height ■ Floor and walls have a clear and clutter-free path from the bed to the chair and to the bathroom ■ Lights work; lighting is set to minimize glare off walls and floor ■ Bedside table, call light and personal items are all within reach ■ If a personal alarm is in use, verify whether it’s required and in use for bed, chair and wheelchair ■ Chairs in room are appropriate height for the resident to safely sit with their feet on the floor, and are suited for ease of transfer ■ Chairs are sturdy and in good condition ■ Call lights function and cords are selected that the resident is able to manipulate and use ■ Floors are dry

Products to consider: ■ Adjustable-height low beds that allow for safer positioning and resident transfers ■ Mattresses with support bolsters that provide a reminder and soft support to help reduce slips

or rolls ■ Safety rings and assist handles to help provide support for bed positioning and transfers ■ Consider a trapeze for residents who may have difficulty reaching or using a side-mounted handle. ■ If an alarm is indicated, consider alarms that connect to the nurse call system. This will reduce agitating noise and minimize anxiety, while still alerting the nursing team ■ Select call cords that the resident can hold and press; consider a flat pad or a breath- activated unit for residents who have difficulty holding and pressing a traditional call button

Creating Caregiver Awareness Product Considerations PageWhen an alarm or alert is utilized, keep these precautions in mind: ■ Ensure individualized resident assessments are completed and indicate the use of an alarm/alert ■ Check where and when an alarm/alert is needed. Consider all areas where one might be needed i.e., bed, chair, wheelchair ■ Alarms/alerts are checked daily to ensure batteries are charged, as indicated ■ Pad placements are checked after each transfer and re-positioning in bed, chair or wheelchair. Check for connection and proper placement ■ Verify caregivers are notified of changes to the care plan for the use of alarms/alerts ■ Evaluate effectiveness of the alarm/alert as an intervention, and adjust as indicated. ■ If color-coded identification is used, verify that the use of color is consistent within the facility and that staff are aware of the color distinction

Examples of some of considerations when selecting an alarm/alert: ■ If an alarm is indicated, consider alarms that

connect to the nurse call system. This will reduce agitating noise and minimize anxiety,

■ Consider ease of use when resetting the alarm/alert. ■ Consider using wireless alarms to reduce cords

and wires.

Examples of some of considerations when selecting patient identification: ■ Consider resident dignity when choosing a color-

code to indicate fall risk. Be consistent in color selection

Potential Product Considerations vary based on individual circumstances, and other options may exist.

Bathing & Toileting Product Considerations PageExamples of some of the important areas to check include: ■ Call lights in room and bathroom work with

adaptable cords, if needed ■ Raised toilet seat is in place, if applicable ■ Lighting is bright enough in shower areas, but

minimized to avoid glare in bathrooms ■ Bath benches are at the appropriate height, rubber

feet are intact and provide a firm floor grip ■ Verify all items are within reach – soap, shampoo,

washcloth, towels, etc. ■ Sturdy transfer bars are placed at an appropriate

height and in good condition; check shower area and bathrooms for transfer bars

■ Floors are dry

Products to consider: ■ Verify raised toilet seats are the right height for

the resident. Feet should be on the floor at all times. ■ Select bath benches that are adjustable in height

and fit the shower area appropriately. Benches should be easy to transfer a resident to and provide enough support to allow the resident to feel comfortable and relaxed.

■ Place transfer bars in natural “grab” locations to help minimize reaching, which can throw residents off balance.

Wheelchair & Mobility Aids Product Considerations PageExamples of some of the important areas to check: ■ Wheelchair is the right size for the resident ■ Cushion is in good condition, with proper support

selected for the resident’s needs ■ Seat support is appropriate for the resident to provide a natural sitting position with proper support ■ Wheels move easily and are firmly attached. ■ Wheel locks are easy to manage and stay firmly

locked until released ■ Leg/footrests are the right size and length ■ Leg/footrests are securely attached and easy to

take on/off if needed ■ Anti-rollback and anti-tip devices are applied

as indicated ■ Gait belts are in good condition with no rips or

tears, and buckles work effectively; gait belts are in good supply

■ Walkers are properly fitted to the right size for the resident

■ Walkers are sturdy and in good condition ■ Walker wheels work, lock easily and stay firmly

locked until released ■ Wheelchairs and walkers are cleaned and

maintained regularly

Examples of some of the products to consider: ■ Work with a therapist when sizing a wheelchair

for the correct size. ■ Consider additional supports in a wheelchair

to assist with reducing sliding and tipping. Cushions and positioners may provide some additional support.

■ Consider accessories for the wheelchair for residents to maintain personal items and a beverage. This can help prevent over-reaching for an item and loss of balance.

■ Evaluate the use of a tray or other convenience devices that attach to the chair, as these devices may be considered restraints. Consult your restraint use policies and all applicable laws and regulations.
