Study Summary

This is a randomized trial of 2 nursing home staff educational approaches to reduce falls in VA nursing home (CLC) residents. One is a traditional falls education program using web-based modules, feedback of quality indicators, and meetings with influential peers. The other is a 12 week program that trains staff to form better connections and use effective communication strategies with a diverse network of co-workers, so that problem solving about resident problems is enhanced. The study will test whether the second intervention increases the effectiveness of the traditional falls education program.

Primary Outcome

The proportion of applicable fall quality indicators documented for residents with falls during the study period. Quality indicators are specific fall risk assessment or prevention activities including orthostatic blood pressure assessment, vision assessment, environmental modification (bedroom, bathroom), footwear change, physical or occupational therapy referral, psychoactive medication reduction.

Interventions

  • BEHAVIORAL CONNECT educational intervention
  • BEHAVIORAL FALLS educational intervention
