National Audit of Inpatient Falls (NAIF) is a clinically led, web-based audit of inpatient falls prevention care in acute hospitals in England and Wales. NAIF aims to improve inpatient falls prevention through audit and quality improvement.
The National Audit of Inpatient Falls (NAIF) has collaborated with partners to produce a new vision assessment tool which enables ward staff to quickly assess a patient’s eyesight in order to help prevent them falling or tripping while in hospital.
Collaboration is key to improvement. As such, we have created a platform for services to share improvement stories.
The information sheet contains the details of the audit methodology. The audit proforma contains the dataset. To see how the audit dataset is linked to NICE Guidance please view the mapping document.
