Do you screen for BPPV in everyone who has experienced a fall? Recent work by Metz and Bryce shows that we should be! cambridge.org/core/journals/…

We are no longer using #falls alarms across @STSFTrust 🎉
They don’t reduce falls, they’re noisy & worsen agitation.
Focus needs to be on robust #risk assessment/intervention, environment & delivering enhanced care (of course with current staffing pressures this is a challenge)

Public appeal - help stop the spread of COVID-19 in our hospitals and protect our staff and patients by wearing a facemask , coming alone for appointments and not meeting up with patients in our grounds. We need everyone to #DoYourBit and support our NHS bit.ly/34mu1ls
