patient education tool to prevent falls
2. Select a QSEN competency that relates to that problem. Example: Example: Safety
3. Select a health care organization that can help support your issue: Example: The CDC
4. Develop a global objective: Example: At the completion of this project I will have
developed a patient educational tool to present to staff on 1-South to be distributed to all
patients on 1-South to prevent falls.
5. Develop at least four project objectives: Example:
a. Research current literature on the prevention of falls and patient educational
material content.
b. Seek falls data from ABC Hospital quality department and specifically from the 1-
South Unit.
c. Review data results and evaluate for trends.
d. Develop a patient educational tool on fall prevention.
e. Educate staff on use of the patient educational tool
f. Implement patient educational tool and present to at least ten patients on 1-South.
6. Develop possible resources needed to help meet your goals/objectives.
a. Meet with unit manager and seek approval on project implementation.
b. Review the CDC web site for current references and resources on fall prevention.
c. Create patient educational tool, copy and prepare to distribute.
d. Create a timeline to implement the patient educational tool.
