Fall Prevention Training
According to the American Journal of Preventive Medicine, one in three adults age 65 and up, fall every year. Twenty to thirty percent of people who fall suffer moderate to severe injuries such as lacerations, hip fractures, and head traumas. Many of those who fall, even if they are not injured, develop a fear of falling, which makes them limit their activities. Reduction of activities leads to loss of mobility and fitness which increases individual's actual risk of falling.
