Nursing Home Survival: What To Do After a Resident Falls.

A resident fall can happen quickly, but what you do immediately afterward matters. 🚨 In this episode of my Nursing Home Survival Series, I explain the important steps nurses should take after a resident falls: remain calm, assess before moving the resident, obtain vital signs, notify the appropriate people, follow facility protocol, monitor for changes, and document objectively. Never cover up a fall or chart what you did not personally observe. Protect your resident, follow the care plan and facility policy, and protect your nursing license. 💗📌 This video is for educational purposes only and does not replace your facility’s policies, physician’s orders, or professional clinical judgment.
