Abstract:
Objective To explore the effect of ACMMM management model in preventing the elderly inpatients from falling.Methods Patients hospitalized in geriatric ward in a certain comprehensive third-level grade-A hospital from January 2014 to December 2015 were selected as objects, with those hospitalized from January to December 2014 as control group, and others as intervention group. ACMMM falling prevention management model was carried out from January 2015, including falling risk assessment at admission of the patients, strengthening communication between medical workers and patients and their relatives, monitoring safety risk of the patients, improving patients′condition, improving environment and maintaining facilities in the ward. Incidence rates of falling were compared between the two groups.Results Incidence rate of falling in the intervention group was 0.45% (6/1 316), which was significantly lower than that of the control group 1.99%( 24/1 204 ) (χ2 = 12. 634, P<0. 05 ) . Conclusions The implementation of ACMMM falling prevention management model can drop the incidence rate of falling, promote continuous improvement of nursing quality and reduce incidence of medical disputes.
