خلاصه	The Morse Fall Scale (MFS) is a brief, reliable tool for assessing the risk of falling in hospitalized patients. Developed by Janice M. Morse through research identifying characteristics of fall-prone patients, the MFS evaluates six specific risk factors: history of falling, secondary diagnoses, ambulatory aids, intravenous therapy, gait, and mental status. The scale's simplicity, short administration time, and strong predictive validity have made it one of the most widely adopted fall risk assessment instruments in acute care settings.	The Early Warning Score (EWS), most commonly known as the National Early Warning Score (NEWS) in the UK, is a standardized tool for identifying acutely unwell patients at risk of deterioration. Developed by the Royal College of Physicians and validated through research by Smith, Prytherch, and colleagues, NEWS combines vital sign measurements and supplemental oxygen use to generate a composite score. High NEWS scores trigger escalated care responses, enabling early intervention before critical illness develops.
