Let’s Get Moving is suitable for all healthcare professionals whatever environment they work in. Focused
on early and continuous mobility, falls prevention and management, and the essential connection
between the two, this summit will answer many of your questions about how to make effective changes
to your risk management program and individual clinical practice, while protecting yourself from injury
and providing a quality, cost effective service to your patients or residents.
By the end of the summit each attendee will be able to:
- Identify the factors that cause falls, and what they can do to reduce the risk of them occurring
- Examine how mobilizing patients at all stages of their recovery improves their quality of care
- Compare risk assessment tools that may reduce patient risk and promote staff safety
