Feed back for RNAO revising 2011 guideline of Falls and Fall injuries in the Older Adult

Posted Le 12 mai 2017

Dear BPSO Leads,



As you know, RNAO is currently revising the 2011 guideline Prevention of Falls and Fall Injuries in the Older Adult. As part of the development process, we will be obtaining feedback on the draft guideline from representatives from nursing and other health-care disciplines, health-care administrators and associated key stakeholders. As leaders in guideline implementation and users of RNAO's BPGs, feedback from BPSOs is important. As such, if you (or someone at your organization) is interested in participating in stakeholder review for the revised guideline on the topic of prevention of falls and fall injuries, please contact Verity White, Project Coordinator at vwhite@RNAO.ca to express interest no later than May 18, 2017.



The stakeholder review process will take place starting May 23, 2017 with a deadline for submission of comments from stakeholders due back by June 6, 2017 (there will be no extensions).



Once you have confirmed that you would like to participate you will be contacted and provided with access to the draft of the guideline and an online feedback form.



Please note that the draft will be subject to further changes until the time of publication and dissemination. The review of this draft document confidential and the draft copy is embargoed and is NOT to be circulated to others.



If you have any questions about the RNAO best practice guideline development and review process, please don’t hesitate to contact: Verity White, Project Coordinator or Susan McNeill, Program Manager at smcneill@rnao.ca (copied on this email).



We sincerely thank you for considering becoming a stakeholder reviewer for this guideline.
