Abstract

Falls are a public health problem with worldwide relevance and are considered the second cause of death due to involuntary trauma. Nurses have a central role in preventing falls by implementing evidence-based recommendations. Good practice guidelines (GBP) allow care to be provided based on the best and most current evidence. The Nurses Association of Ontario (RNAO) develops GBP that it expands worldwide thanks to the Program of Centers Committed to Excellence in Care, BPSO®, in which the Primary Care Management of Tenerife participates, as a candidate center, implementing the Guide «Preventing falls and reducing injury resulting from falls». The objectives of this study were to describe the profile of the patient included in «Home Health Care Service» in the ZBS of the Tenerife Health Area where the GBP is implemented.
