Falls are one of the leading injuries that take seniors to the hospital. What better day to focus on fall prevention than the first day of Fall?
National Falls Prevention and Awareness Day is devoted to raising awareness regarding fall-related injuries and their prevention, especially amongst older adults.
One in three elderly persons falls each year in the United States. Most of these mishaps are preventable.
Preventive measures you can take include:
Find a balance or exercise program.
Talk to a medical professional or a doctor.
Review your medications.
Have your vision and hearing checked annually.
Keep your home safe.
Speak with family members about any issues or concerns you may have.
A little prevention can stop months or years of pain and inactivity. Use this day to ensure you’re doing everything in your life to prevent unnecessary falls and slips.
