Telehealth-Based Support for Safer Living
At Nursing Assessment Australia, we provide professional fall risk assessments for older adults, NDIS participants, and individuals experiencing changes in mobility, balance, or confidence at home. As a clinician-led Australian provider, our service connects clients and care teams with experienced registered nurses who deliver structured assessments via secure telehealth.
Falls are a leading cause of injury, hospitalisation, and loss of independence among older Australians. A timely elderly fall risk assessment can help identify contributing factors early, reduce preventable risks, and support safer daily living. We focus on practical, evidence-based recommendations that align with aged-care and NDIS requirements, helping clients and families make informed decisions with confidence.

What is a Fall Risk Assessment?
A fall risk assessment is a structured clinical evaluation designed to identify personal, environmental, and functional factors that increase the likelihood of falling. We deliver comprehensive fall risk assessments via phone or video consultation, removing the need for clinic visits while maintaining clinical depth and clarity.
Each fall prevention assessment considers mobility, balance, strength, medication influences, medical history, cognition, vision, footwear, and daily routines. Environmental risks are explored through guided discussion, allowing the nurse to assess how the home setting and support arrangements may contribute to falls risk.
This approach ensures every elderly fall risk assessment results in clear, actionable strategies that can be implemented immediately and reflected in care plans, funding reviews, or support coordination documentation.
What to Expect from the Assessment Process
At Nursing Assessment Australia, we are a trusted provider of fall risk assessments, offering a simple, supportive process designed around client needs.
Before the Assessment
The process begins with a free 15-minute consultation to confirm suitability, funding type, and goals. This ensures the correct assessment is delivered and that telehealth is appropriate for the client’s circumstances.
During the Assessment
A registered nurse conducts the elderly fall risk assessment via secure phone or video. Using structured questioning and recognised clinical frameworks, the nurse reviews mobility, falls history, medications, daily activities, and environmental factors. Where appropriate, simple guided movements or observations may be used to inform risk identification.
After the Assessment
Clients receive a clear, professionally written report outlining identified risks, practical strategies, and recommendations. Each fall prevention assessment report is suitable for families, support coordinators, aged-care providers, and NDIS documentation, ensuring recommendations can be actioned without delay.
