One of the Adverse Events That Medicare Will No Longer

One of the adverse events that Medicare will no longer reimburse the hospital for is an in-hospital fall. Fall prevention is a major part of nursing and risk management. In order to reduce the risk of falling, the nurse must:

A) ensure that the patient wears his prescription glasses when up.
B) post signs to alert staff to the patient at high risk for falls.
C) always assist every patient with ambulation.
D) assess the patient's fatigue level.
E) monitor gait and balance.
