Falls Among Older Adults in Healthcare Facilities

What is public health problem? Every individual has their meaning and how they understand it. Public health is a health problem that affects a significant portion of a typical population. One of the public health problems is early individuals falling in ALF and Nurse Homes. One of the primary healthcare problems in ALF and nursing homes is managing fall-risk patients and preventing falls. Older individuals are a severe public health concern that continually results in long-term pain, incapacity, early admittance to a nursing home, duration of hospital stay, cognitive disability, and other complications due to falls. In recent years, a substantial problem has emerged within the healthcare system, specifically concerning falls among older adults in various settings such as hospitals, nursing homes, assisted living facilities (ALFs), and long-term care facilities.
