Why did the nurse fail to inform the patient about adverse effects of certain medication (dizziness, orthostatic hypotension?)

Why were ‘risk for falls” signage and “risk for falls” bracelet not being used?

At change of shift why didn’t the nurse inform the oncoming nurse about an at- risk patient?
