To print a page:

Using Internet Explorer

Under 'File' select 'Page Setup...', then under Orientation select 'Landscape', then 'OK' at the bottom. Next preview the page by selecting 'Print Preview' again under 'File'.

If the page is too wide, you can adjust the margins in the 'Page Setup' box.

If the colours of the menu headings are not shown, select 'Internet Options' under 'Tools', then click the 'Advanced' tab, and finally scroll down to the 'Printing' section and select 'Print background colors and images' then 'OK' at the bottom. Select 'Print...' under 'File' to print the page.

Using Netscape

This is essentially the same as above except that the 'Print background colors and images' option is available under the 'Print Setup' box

Having problems printing a page?

This FoNS microsite is dedicated to the sharing of good practice to reduce patient falls.

The impetus to create the site has been FoNS' involvement with a number of projects in England and Wales, all of which aimed to implement strategies to reduce patient falls.

We hope this microsite will serve a variety of purposes:

Enable the sharing of good practice by providing progress reports on the on-going projects being supported by FoNS
Help nurses and others involved in similar projects to share their work on this microsite - if you have some information to share please contact us!
Provide information and links to other useful resources

**WANTED**

Patient falls is the most frequently used search term by visitors to the FoNS website. The demand for information about how to reduce patient falls remains very high.
