Unit of competencyCHCAGE002 Implement falls prevention strategies

Overview/Competency demonstrationThis unit describes the skills and knowledge required to work in partnership with older people and their carer/s to implement strategies to minimise the risk of falls.

This unit applies to support workers in a residential or community context. Work performed requires some discretion and judgement and may be carried out under regular direct or indirect supervision.

The skills in this unit must be applied in accordance with Commonwealth and State/Territory legislation, Australian/New Zealand standards and industry codes of practice.

To demonstrate your competency in this unit you will need to provide evidence of your ability to: Prepare to implement falls prevention strategies Identify potential risk of falls Implement falls prevention strategies Monitor falls prevention strategies

In order to satisfy the requirements of this unit you need to be able to demonstrate to your assessor that you can: Determine identified strategies which can be implemented within role and

responsibilities and discuss with supervisor or relevant health professional Interpret findings of the assessment and explain relevant information to the older

person and their carer clarifying any requirements Seek the older persons’ permission, cooperation and commitment by

communicating in a supportive and encouraging manner that is respectful of the older person and their carer's level of understanding, cultural background, needs and rights

Discuss the older person’s concerns about falling and how they have coped with previous falls in a manner respectful of their privacy, dignity, wishes and beliefs

Discuss the support of carers where appropriate Identify and explore lifestyle, health and mobility factors with the older person, that

might affect the level of risk Determine the older person’s physical indicators of risk of falls using appropriate

tools and methodologies within scope of role Determine the older person’s risk factors based on findings in collaboration with

supervisor and/or relevant health professional Identify the older person’s needs, issues and concerns outside scope of practice and

refer to appropriate supervisor, health professional or agency in line with organisation procedures

Identify and explain options to minimise the risk of falls and include opportunities for the older person and carer to contribute where appropriate

Work with the older person and their carers to identify and implement strategies that are consistent with their safety needs, priorities, preferences and specific requirements

Implement strategies in a safe and effective manner that minimises the older person’s discomfort

In collaboration with the older person and carers, decide how strategies can be tested and how success will be measured and communicated within the support team

You have just finished dressing Mr Harrison’s skin tear on his left elbow and come back to check on him and have a chat about the fall.

Knock on the door, and introduce yourself.

“Hello Mr. Harrison it’s _______. I’m back because I wanted to talk to you about your mobility, we are a bit concerned about you walking around your room without help and we don’t want you to have another fall”.

“I’m allowed, you’re not going to shackle me down.”

“No I don’t want to do that, I understand you want to move around without calling for staff but there is a risk you can fall, do you agree. Especially when you try to empty your catheter bag on your own?”

(Shrugs his shoulders)“Well I suppose so but damn it I don’t want to feel helpless”

“What about if we figure out a few strategies to reduce the risk of you falling”

“Oh such as what?”

“First of all we can clear a bit of this clutter in your room, and make sure the lighting is stronger so you can see better, maybe a lamp, then we can get some hip protectors so that if you do fall, the impact may be reduced, the other issue is your footwear walking with slippers is not satisfactory”

“Yeah that sounds reasonable, what about the catheter, it gets so full.”

“What about if we empty your bag every 2 hours and we will write that in your care plan, so that it doesn’t get too full?”

“Alright we will see if that happens”

“Are you happy for me to get the physio in to look at your shoes and measure you up for some hip protectors, maybe she can review your frame too?”
