Risk for Injury Care Plan

Being at risk for injury signifies an individual's increased susceptibility to harm due to factors such as impaired mobility, cognitive impairment, environmental hazards, or other factors identified through nursing diagnosis.

Factors include impaired mobility, medication side effects, cognitive impairment, environmental hazards, a history of falls, muscle weakness, vision impairment, and chronic conditions, all of which are considered in injury nursing diagnosis.

The goals are to prevent falls, minimize medication-related risks, promote mobility and independence, address environmental hazards, and educate patients and caregivers.
