Prevent Falls: Discover JHFRAT

During Patient Awareness Safety Week, explore the Johns Hopkins Fall Risk Assessment Tool (JHFRAT), an evidence-based toolkit designed to help hospitals and care teams prevent patient falls. JHFRAT standardizes fall risk assessment, supports patient safety, and adapts to the needs of your patient population. Learn how your organization can implement this proven approach to fall prevention.

Learn from Every Fall

Even a single patient fall can lead to serious injuries - fractures, lacerations, or internal bleeding, and extend hospital stays by an average of six days. The JH Post-Fall Debrief Tool guides care teams through a structured review to identify causes and improve safety. Backed by AHRQ and The Joint Commission, it's a key strategy for preventing future falls.
