    I would like to hear from anyone who has a successful program involving volunteers and Fall prevention.   Thanks for your help.

    Some time ago we had volunteers doing "safety rounds" on patients. They had a checklist of things to look for and would alert the Nurse Manager if something was not in place. That ended a few years ago, so we have no involvement in that now. I'm not sure why, but the Safety officer indicated that volunteers were no longer needed in that role and they were going to do something different.

    Patty,

    Do you by chance have a job description from when your department was doing the Fall Preventions? My department have been doing them for a couple of months now. If so could you send me a copy please?

    Thanks,

    Nancy
