, Patient Fall Near-Miss Incident

Patient Evelyn, aged 68, underwent a knee replacement surgery at the hospital aiming

at alleviating years of pain and enhancing her movement. After the surgery was successfully

done, she was sent over to the orthopedic recovery ward for post-op care. Along with the

visits of her surgeon, administration of drugs by nursing staff and tests for vital signs,

Evelyn's recovery improved gradually.

Nevertheless, on a particular evening shift, Nurse Jessica was shocked by a loud thud.

Trying to find out the cause, the nurse saw Evelyn lying on the floor after she had fallen out

of bed. The medical staff reacted promptly, supporting Evelyn and implementing the

emergency procedures. Based on the feedback, the incident highlighted gaps in the safety

measures—unfastened bed rails, unmonitored bed elevation, and loose wheels.

After the accident, Evelyn's family called for a review of the hospital protocols, which

were acted upon immediately. This incident resulted in a reassessment of patient safety

mechanisms and a decision to implement quality improvement efforts. In turn, the

administrative staff and leadership in the hospital were determined to learn from this

experience, implement any required changes, and ensure the safety of all patients under their

care.

The Implications Of The Near Miss Event For All Stakeholders

The near-miss incident of Evelyn’s falling from her bed involved various people and

stakeholders. First of all, for Evelyn and her family, the event could result in their feeling fear

and anxiety and losing trust in the ability of the hospital to render safe care. The physical

harm Evelyn suffered could lead to the deterioration of the treatment process; hence, the

family imposed legal duties on the hospital, and demanded accountability. Besides, they may

also have been under emotional pressure and a feeling of disloyalty, hence the need for the

hospital to give the assurance of transparency.
