Predictive Falls Risk Assessment
A decision-support tool that helps identify who may be at higher risk of falling, so care teams can act earlier.
The Predictive Falls-Risk Assessment uses information about a person’s health, mobility, function and daily life to estimate falls risk. It analyses multiple risk factors at once and translates them into a clear risk score and traffic-light category.
The tool is designed to support families, carers and professionals by making falls risk easier to see, discuss and prioritise. It does not replace clinical judgement. Instead, it provides an additional decision-support layer to help identify people who may need closer monitoring, follow-up or a more detailed falls assessment.
Identify risk earlier. Prioritise care more clearly. Support safer living at home.
Why earlier prevention matters
Current challenge
Risk is often assessed episodically. Home hazards and daily-life changes may not be visible to the wider care team. Families, carers and professionals may not know what to address first.
How La Casa Care helps
Predictive assessment identifies people who may need closer attention. A continuous falls-risk score supports safety assessments. Risk insights are translated into practical follow-up actions.
How it works
Input
Relevant information is entered or imported, including health conditions, pain, mood, memory, strength, walking ability, daily activities and questionnaire responses.
AI analysis
The model analyses the pattern of risk factors and generates a continuous falls-risk score.
Risk output
The score is translated into a simple traffic-light category:
Green - Lower estimated risk
Yellow - Watch more closely
Red - High estimated risk
Action
The result supports triage, follow-up planning, prevention conversations and professional judgement.
Benefits of Predictive Falls-Risk Assessment
Identify risk earlier
Spot when someone’s falls risk may be increasing before a fall happens, enabling earlier preventive action.
Turn complex risk factors into clear insight
Bring together mobility, strength, health, mood, memory and daily activity factors into one practical falls-risk output.
Support safer independent living
Help older people stay safer, more confident and independent at home by acting before risk turns into crisis.
Prioritise support clearly
Use a simple colour-coded risk signal to understand who may need monitoring, follow-up or a detailed assessment first.
Focus resources where they matter most
Help care teams direct limited time and support towards people with higher or changing falls risk, rather than treating every case the same.
