Managing patients' underlying fall risk factors

  • 37.3 million falls are severe enough to require medical attention each year.
  • Falling once doubles your chances of falling again.

Reduce Risk

We reduce the risk for falls by identifying potential hazards in the home and community and teaching the strategies needed to prevent falls.

Preparedness

We also prepare patients for what to do in the unfortunate event that they do fall, including instruction in how to fall and transferring from the floor.

Safety Procedures

In addition, we implement safety procedures the patient may need if they fall and are unable to get off the floor.

Recommended Equipment

We make recommendations on equipment that can assist with fall prevention and educate the patient and family on it’s proper use.
