"The S.A.F.E. program allowed us to drive more accountability with staff from a unit and facility compliance level. S.A.F.E. provided insights on what interventions were needed to reduce falls and falls with injury, as well as justify the purchase of additional equipment. We were able to beat our goal and ended the year with a 30 percent reduction in falls.”
