Preventing Falls at Mealtimes

The Trip Zone

The ‘Trip Zone‘ is the area around the front of table into which a person needing assistance must navigate.

Trips and falls occur often in this area as both the senior and care staff are expected to shuffle sideways, step backwards, or lean on the table for support while getting aligned with the chair.

Navigating THE TRIP ZONE Safely

When Care Needs Change…

When Care Needs Change

Residents Become Less Mobile, More Dependent, and Require More Physical Assistance From Caregivers

Front Line Caregivers Are the First to Feel the Impact of Reduced Mobility

Caregivers are expected to exert whatever physical effort is required (pushing–pulling–shoving–twisting) each time a seated person needs to be moved into position at the table.

Traditional Chairs  FAIL Both Seniors and Caregivers. Why?

Q
Chairs are not designed to move
Q

Chairs are not designed to reduce the physical demands of caregivers

Q
Cushioned flooring creates pockets into which chair legs get “stuck”
