A fall is defined similarly to a medical error: it involves an unintended event that could result in harm to a patient. Just like medical errors, falls are preventable incidents that require careful monitoring, proper safety protocols, and prompt interventions to minimize risk and protect patient well-being. Understanding this definition helps healthcare providers recognize the importance of fall prevention as a critical aspect of patient safety.
The Principle of Beneficence
In the context of injury identification and reporting, the principle of beneficence plays a critical role. Healthcare providers must act in the best interest of their patients by promptly recognizing injuries, accurately documenting them, and reporting incidents to prevent further harm. By adhering to beneficence, providers ensure that they are not only treating injuries effectively but also contributing to a safer care environment.
