15-10 - Using Mobility and Individualized Approaches to Reduce the Risk of Falling

< All Webinars

Guest: Jo A. Taylor, BSN, MPH, Quality Improvement Specialist

Move from the traditional culture of functional decline to a culture of individualized care that reduces the risk of falling. An individualized culture replaces restraints, alarms, and antipsychotics with better practices such as resident-focused care instead of schedule-focused, including the encouragement of resident self-care. Most importantly, learn how to bring mobility to the forefront of life for residents with an environment for mobility that includes direct caregiver support (not just therapy), exercise activities and increased walking rather than wheelchair use. Start to turn the tides from excess safety to improved well-being. After all, as our expert guest Jo Taylor points it, older adults define their well-being by their functional status.
