TLDR: Difficulties following instructions, communicating basic needs & gaining staff attention were contributing factors to falls. Patients fell when taking a risk or trying to meet a basic need. Communication disability complicated assessment for injury post fall.

TLDR: most common type of fall was an unwitnessed fall/roll from bed. Patient factors contributed to 50% of all falls. A third of falls a contributing factor couldn’t be identified due to patients communication disability & fall being unwitnessed. Limited insights to outcomes
