Summary

National Audit of Inpatient Falls Data from clinical audit data from 1 January to 31 December 2024, published October 2025.

Falls are the most frequently reported incident affecting hospital inpatients. The data collected by NAIF and presented below provide opportunity to identify areas in which to enhance the quality of care for people who sustain an inpatient hip fracture.

This is the final NAIF report from the continuous audit of only those inpatients who had a fall resulting in a femoral fracture.

In January 2025, NAIF expanded to collect data on all fractures, head injuries and spinal injuries that occurred as a result of an inpatient fall. The next report will therefore present national data on patients with these fall-related injuries.
