What does the Morse Fall Risk Tool assess?

The Morse Fall Risk Tool is specifically designed to evaluate the likelihood of a patient experiencing a fall during their hospital stay. It takes into account various factors such as the patient’s history of falls, their ability to get up and move, any diagnoses that may pose a risk, and other mobility issues. By identifying those at greater risk, healthcare providers can implement appropriate interventions to prevent falls, which is critical for patient safety and quality care in the healthcare setting.

The other options focus on different aspects of healthcare quality and performance that are not related to fall risk assessment, emphasizing the specialized nature of the Morse Fall Risk Tool.
