Topic: Prevent Falls in the Ophthalmic Office (Course #06SA5)
Speaker: Anne M. Menke, RN, PhD, OMIC Risk Manager
Description: Falls are the leading cause of fatal and non-fatal injuries for people over 65 years of age, according to the CDC. When they happen in physician offices and ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs), some patients and their families assume that physicians and staff members should have predicted and prevented the falls, and sue for malpractice. This talk will present a study of malpractice claims filed by patients who were injured while receiving ophthalmic care.
