Clinicians face increasing workloads, particularly when managing fall risk assessments for elderly patients. Nursing diagnoses for fall risk are necessary to ensure patients are appropriately referred for skilled therapy, however, they are often subjective and occur once a patient already shows signs of functional decline. The process to arrive at a fall risk diagnosis is often cumbersome and leaves room for falls to occur.
OneStep transforms this process with automated tools that improve accuracy and efficiency. By providing real-time fall risk data and insights, OneStep empowers care teams to work together to diagnose risks quickly, implement effective prevention strategies, and focus on delivering quality care to elderly patients.
The challenges of fall risk diagnoses for clinicians
Time-consuming manual assessments
Traditional fall risk assessments require lengthy evaluations and documentation, consuming valuable clinician time and thus are not performed routinely.
Missed subtle mobility changes
Periodic assessments that do not incorporate objective gait analysis often miss early signs of mobility decline, delaying interventions that could prevent falls in elderly patients.
Burdensome documentation
Clinicians spend significant time on paperwork, reducing the time available for direct patient care and intervention planning.
