A Synergistic Approach to Fall Prevention Technology
- Presenter(s): Monique Bouvier; Nate Collins; Rita Richardson
- Session Length: 50 minutes
- Date: Apr 1, 2026
A large health system partnered with a vendor to trial a LiDAR-based fall prevention platform. They used a novel collaborative leadership model, uniting system-level digital and innovation teams with unit-based nursing leadership. This partnership ensured the technology was adapted to the clinical workflow, effectively reducing false alarms and improving nurse satisfaction. The trial resulted in fewer patient falls and demonstrated that including point-of-care leadership is critical for successful
Learning Outcomes
Learning Outcomes
- Describe how a collaborative leadership model between improves technology adoption
- Explain how direct involvement of unit-level leadership can mitigate common challenges in technology
