Nurses’ experiences of children’s fall accidents in South Korea: a phenomenological study

Nurses recognized that the risk of pediatric falls was often beyond their control, and that fall prevention education did not always translate into practice. Reflective analysis of fall incidents, age- and patient-specific fall nursing interventions, and the establishment of an integrated support system are needed for effective fall prevention and management. These findings are expected to provide basic data to guide nursing care that prevents fall accidents and improves children's patient safety.
