Strategies

Restrict the content and placement of alcohol advertisements on broadcasts, outdoor displays, internet marketing, etc. via state laws, local ordinances, industry self-regulation, or a combination of efforts

Provide educational and behavioral interventions that support patients’ ability to actively manage their condition(s) in everyday life

Provide a fixed, multi-component set of fall prevention interventions to older adults, usually in community settings, without an individualized risk assessment

Distribute Naloxone to trained community members and first responders to reverse opioid overdoses

Use visual tools to prompt safe practices, standardize communication, and ensure no step is forgotten before, during, or after a medical procedure or other health care situation

Use databases, housed in state agencies, to track prescribing and dispensing of Schedule II, III, IV, and V drugs and other controlled substances

Conduct individual assessments that gauge older adults’ risk of falling and develop personalized approaches to help prevent falls
