Abstract
The aim was to demonstrate the use of quality and safety management indicators for fall risk. Descriptive case report on the use and results of quality management tools. The setting is a clinical ward of a tertiary care hospital located in the capital of the state of Rio de Janeiro. Data were collected in April/2023. The pre-test assertiveness rate was 87% and 89% for the post-test, however for analysis of the indicator identification of the risk of falling, it was significantly high for inadequacy, on the general average 90.48% of the beds, and after raising awareness via online training and monitoring, there was a drastic and relatively important change to 84.56% of beds and patients identified appropriately. The prevention and reduction of risk factors are challenges in the management of nursing care in the broad health ecosystem. Quality as a right must be implemented by associating accessible technological resources and tools that can measure and quantify objectives aligned with institutional practices.
