Although there are required evacuation drills, tornado drills, and other drills depending on the area of the country, it has most often been found that there is insufficient communication and collaboration between the first responder community and those in SL/LTC settings. Full evacuations are not often performed due to resource limitations and actual risk to residents in such circumstances.

Falls can be markers of poor health and declining function and they are often associated with significant morbidity. More than 90 percent of hip fractures occur as a result of falls with most of these fractures occurring in persons over 70 years of age. One third of community-dwelling elderly persons and 60 percent of nursing home residents fall each year. Risk factors for falls in the elderly include increasing age medication use cognitive impairment and sensory deficits. Outpatient evaluation of a patient who has fallen includes a focused history with an emphasis on medications a directed physical examination and simple tests of postural control and overall physical function. Treatment is directed at the underlying cause of the fall and can return the patient to baseline function. Am Fam Physician 2000 61 2159-68 2173-4. Elderly patients who have fallen should undergo a thorough evaluation. Determining and treating the underlying cause of a fall can return patients to baseline function and reduce the risk of recurrent falls. These measures can have a substantial impact on the morbidity and mortality of falls. The resultant .
