Stop the Drop™

A Monarch EAS™ Initiative

Early Alert System for Fall Risk Management

Identify fall risk earlier. Reduce repeat falls. Strengthen survey readiness.

Built for skilled nursing and assisted living by experienced long-term care leadership.

Why Monarch EAS™ Was Created

Monarch EAS™ was created after seeing the real impact of falls in long-term care and assisted living homes, not just on resident, but on staff, leadership, and the facility as a whole.

Most facilities experience repeat falls because early risk signs are missed. Monarch EAS™ turns everyday observations into early, actionable interventions that prevent falls before they happen.

Monarch EAS™ was designed to capture those early signals and turn everyday observation into early intervention, helping facilities reduce risk before a fall occurs.

How Monarch EAS™ Works

Monarch EAS™ helps staff recognize and act on fall risk before a fall occurs.

Staff are trained to notice and report early warning signs and near-miss events, including unsafe transfers, unassisted ambulation, environmental hazards, and changes in behavior that signal increased risk.

Visual mobility tags and alerts create clear, consistent communication across all shifts and disciplines, ensuring everyone understands a resident’s current level of risk.

Near-miss information is reviewed by leadership through QAPI to identify patterns, trends, and residents who may require additional support.

This allows care plans, supervision, and interventions to be adjusted in real time - before an injury, investigation or citation occurs.

Who Monarch EAS™ Is For

Monarch EAS™ is for facilities experiencing :

  • Repeat falls, including serious or preventable injuries

  • Survey concerns related to falls, supervision, or accident hazards

  • Documentation gaps in mobility status or fall-related interventions

  • Staff hesitation or inconsistency when responding to fall risk triggers

What Makes Monarch EAS™ Different

Monarch EAS™ is not a policy binder or a one-time training. It is a working system built around what staff actually see, experience and respond to every day.

By focusing on near-misses, clear visual communication, and structured leadership follow-up through QAPI, Monarch EAS™ helps facilities identify risk earlier and take action before a fall occurs - rather than reacting after an injury, investigation, or citation.

What Facilities Can Expect

Facilities using Monarch EAS™ experience improved staff awareness, clearer communication across shifts, and earlier intervention for residents at risk.

Over time, this leads to fewer repeat falls, stronger and more consistent documentation, and a proactive approach to fall prevention that supports both resident safety and regulatory compliance.

What’s Included in the Monarch EAS™ Kit

The Monarch EAS™ Kit includes the tools facilities need to implement a proactive fall prevention system - without adding unnecessary complexity or workload.

Each kit includes a Monarch EAS™ implementation binder with clear training and guidance, near-miss reporting slips and tracking tools to capture early warning signs, and visual alert materials that support consistent communication across all shifts.

The kit also provides step-by-step rollout guidance for leadership and staff, along with QAPI-ready tools to support trend review, follow-up, and documentation.

Everything designed for immediate use while supporting long-term sustainability.

Monarch EAS™ is designed to integrate into existing workflows, not replace them.
