The investigators will conduct STEADI Algorithm for Falls Prevention educational sessions for healthcare providers in the neurosurgery unit, including doctors, nurses, physical therapists, and pharmacists. All healthcare providers in the neurosurgery unit will be invited to attend the educational sessions. Their participation will be voluntary and no obligations will be made, though. Healthcare providers will be invited to attend one 2-hour educational session. In each session, The investigators will have between 8-10 healthcare providers. The educational sessions will be delivered in the classroom available in the neurosurgery unit to facilitate the healthcare providers' access. PowerPoint presentations, videos, quizzes, case studies, and in-class discussions will be used to deliver learning content during the educational sessions. Healthcare providers will then be asked to apply the STEADI interventions on a group of patients.
