The purpose of this study was to investigate incidences of falling and to develop a tailored fall-preventing program for nursing home residents. To achieve this purpose, incidences of falling were calculated for fall-rate, fall-type, fall-injury, injured region and fall-risk scores. Fall-preventive intervention was developed according to risk factors discovered in the literature review. Futhermore, four types of tailored fall-preventive exercises were developed according to fall-risk scores and bedridden status. As a result, fall-rates were 17.9%, falling down fall-types were 74.3%, bone fractures were 34.3%, and hip and femur fractures were 50%. Fall-risk groups were 99%. Nursing intervention according to nine risk factors was developed implementing four types of tailored fall-preventive exercises for high/low risk groups and active/passive ROM groups. In conclusion, these practical-complementary programs focused on avoiding injury risk and improving elderly care grade rather than rapid effects.
