Fall prevention

Falls remain one of the most critical safety risks for older adults - especially in mental health, long-term care, and assisted living facilities. They threaten patient safety, drive up costs, and stretch already limited staff resources.

"I led a recent CQC (England regulator) inspection and I was informed how the Oxehealth platform had enabled staff to save at least 9 lives in mental health acute settings. In my own trust... I am well aware of the significant number of falls that are prevented on dementia wards. As we get to develop [the platform] via coproduction, there’s the potential to see more and more benefits."

Chair

"Previously we were relying on checking patients every 15 minutes and listening out. Now we’ve got an extra alert system there for us… We’ve had a lot fewer falls. It’s helped to reduce that risk as we’re able to get to the patient quicker."

Mental Health Technician

Falls have reduced massively on the ward because of the system. It’s our sixth member of staff on the nightshift."

Unit Manager

“Dawn [pseudonym] sleeps on an airflow mattress to prevent bedsores and needs assistance when getting out of bed. I check her every 15 minutes to confirm she’s fine, but in the meantime, anything can happen. Dawn relies on us to help her use the bathroom and to get dressed and so we need to be aware as soon as she tries to get up. At around midnight one night, minutes after I had been in to check on Dawn, the platform alerted us that she was getting out of bed. I went straight to her room and assisted her with using the bathroom.”

Mental Health Staff Member

“I believe it keeps patients safer because you can intervene before that potential fall happens… You can get in there before they’ve fallen.”

Mental Health Technician

“The severity of falls and associated injuries have reduced massively at night: I think it’s because we can intervene earlier. For example, we can attend to patients within seconds if they are disoriented or confused so they don’t slip and fall.”

Unit Manager
