SUMMARY:SCAHRM December Webinar: Falls: From the Ground Up
DESCRIPTION:SCAHRM is excited to announce our December Webinar:\nPAMELA JOHNSON RN BSN CPHRM\nLearning Objectives\n\n\n\n Identify areas for potential falls in healthcare settings\n Bust myths about falls\n Risk mitigation strategies for fall prevention\n\n\n\nSession Summary\nFalls are not limited to elderly or frail patients—anyone can experience a fall under the right conditions. Misunderstandings about who is at risk often lead to insufficient prevention strategies and overlooked warning signs. In both ambulatory and inpatient settings\, common risk factors include mobility limitations\, medication side effects\, and unfamiliar surroundings. Environmental and procedural issues such as poor lighting\, cluttered walkways\, and inconsistent rounding practices further elevate the risk. Evidence-based prevention strategies—like regular risk assessments\, use of assistive devices\, and individualized care plans—are essential. Staff training\, patient education\, and workflow adjustments play a critical role in reducing fall incidents. A proactive approach that includes comprehensive risk mitigation strategies helps ensure safer care environments across all healthcare settings. \nSpeaker\n \nPAMELA JOHNSON RN BSN CPHRM\nSenior Manager\, Practice Quality and Facilities\nCopic\nPamela Johnson brings over 18 years of experience in healthcare risk management\, with a focus on medical malpractice liability and patient safety across both insurance and large healthcare system settings.

Attendees will learn which AI models are currently available and used in medicine\, how the standard of care applies to AI use in clinical settings\, and what current and emerging laws may shape the future of AI in medicine.
