Patient fall rates can be impacted by numerous factors, such as staffing, safety culture, and individual nurse safety attitudes. In this study of 619 hospital nurses, a strong safety climate, good working conditions, and lower rates of self-reported missed care were associated with a lower incidence of inpatient falls. Additionally, good collaboration between nurses, physicians, and pharmacists was associated with lower fall rates.
