Prevention Is Key
Each year, 1 in 4 Americans aged 65+ fall, resulting in more than 2.8 million injuries treated in Emergency Rooms. These injuries lead to hospital stays, surgeries, and complications. This can be a slippery slope to further loss of mobility and independence.
Your risk of falling is not measured on age alone. Many factors influence it, including balance, strength and functional mobility to name just a few. Knowing if you’re at risk of falling is an important first step to prevention. We can help.
