P-values are from a Fisher’s exact test.

95% confidence intervals were calculated by the modified Wald method.

Events are reported as the proportion of participants experiencing at least one event during the trial period.

Fall; any witnessed event recorded as a fall in the RACF progress notes, any unwitnessed incident where a resident was found sitting, lying, or kneeling on the floor, fracture; a new, non-vertebral fracture confirmed by radiological investigation, GP visit; unscheduled visit by GP or ambulance attendance without hospital transfer, GP call; phone call to a GP or emergency department requiring a response (excludes faxes, calls to a GP practice not requiring a doctor to respond, and routine phone notifications requiring no response).
