•1. Patients admitted to the ward for a duration of no less than 48 hours
•2. Patients who are deemed by the ward clinicians to be at risk of falling from the bed due to one or more of the following reasons:
•2.1. Frailty due to old age (e.g. 65 years or older)
•2.2. Frailty due to medical conditions (e.g. hypotension)
•2.3. Frailty due to mental conditions (e.g. dementia)
•2.4. Frailty due to physical conditions (e.g. amputation)
•2.5. Frailty due to medication(s)
•Patients who are able to give informed consent or individuals unable to consent to participation due to a lack of mental capacity their participation needs to be agreed by someone who is independent of the study and who can assess the potential participant’s interests in accordance with current legislation and guidance.
•This person may be a relative, a carer or an independent representative. These patients are a particularly vulnerable group and their interests must therefore be protected. They should be given the same opportunities to participate in ethically designed research projects as those who do not lack capacity but must not be put at unwarranted risk.

•1. Patients under 18 years of age
•2. Patients in an unconscious state or otherwise unable to move under the own power
