Introduction: A fall is an unexpected event in which the participant comes to rest on the ground, floor, or lower level.An unfamiliar environment, acute illness, surgery, bed rest, medications, treatments, and the placement of various tubes and catheters are common factors that place patients at risk for falling in the hospital setting. Aim: The aim of the study is to assess the level of risk for fall among patients in acute care setting. Methods and Materials: Cross sectional research study was conducted in acute care setting with 60 samples which was selected by convenient sampling technique. The instrument used for the study was Morse Risk Fall Scale and the data were analyzed by using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: Out of 60 samples, 15(25%) of them are no risk for fall, 35(58.3%) of them are low risk for fall and 10(16.7%) of them are high risk for fall. The mean value of risk for fall is 45.5 with the standard deviation is 30. There is a significant association between body mass index and risk for fall with P<0.005. Conclusion: The study findings emphasized that Screen fall-related injury risk factors and related history at the time of admission and standard protocol and interventions for patients at highest risk of fall-related injury.
