[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I haven’t read the entire thread. This was probably suggested earlier. I work at an inpatient Hospice facility. Many of our patients are geriatric long-term patients. We have a lot of fall risks, especially with our Alzheimer’s and dementia patients. We put fall risks closest to the nursing stations and use use mattresses with alarms. We will never be able to prevent all falls, but we do everything possible to keep our patients safe.[/quote] What is the difference between an inpatient Hospice facility and a regular nursing home, assuming there is a difference?[/quote]
