Details:

Each year in the U.S., over 14 million adults aged 65+ fall, leading to approximately 3 million emergency department visits, 1 million hospitalizations, and over 40,000 deaths, making falls the leading cause of injury and death for this age group. Fall prevention involves a focus on home safety, strength and balance, and managing your health. Join us for an informative discussion and information on home safety modifications, health & lifestyle factors, and other strategies you can use to decrease your risk of fall and injury.
