Reducing the Cost of Inpatient Falls: An Application of Enterprise Risk Management
Learn how to identify the five steps of Enterprise Risk Management (ERM), apply it to the prevention of falls with injury, and create lasting value.
This webinar, presented by Shannon Delchamps, BSN, RN, CPHRM, CPPS, and Rebecca Bailey, MSN, RN, CPHRM, provides a practical knowledge of the five steps of ERM and how to apply them to the common risk/patient safety issue of fall injury prevention.
Traditional fall prevention activities have not been shown to be effective in preventing inpatient falls or injuries from falls. The novel approach presented in this webinar will arm the risk professional with tools both to reduce the cost of inpatient falls resulting in injury and to advance ERM across the organization.
Today’s risk professional may be in the position of combining traditional, clinical risk management with enterprise risk management. This webinar demonstrates how to do just that and will leave the learner with practical instruction that can be applied to other, similar issues in risk management.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify the five steps of the ERM process.
- Understand how to apply the ERM process to the prevention of falls with injury.
- Apply the principles of ERM to other risks identified in the organizations.
- Create value for the organization and the patients who are served there.
