abstract="In response to our agency exceeding the national benchmark rates for &quot;Emergent Care for Injury Caused by Fall or Accident at Home,&quot; Alliance Visiting Nurse Association &amp; Hospice developed a program to assess, prevent, or decrease the risk of falls in our mostly elderly and/or chronically ill population.
