A fall could have life-changing consequences. Take action! Home Safety: remove tripping hazards, install handrails in key areas and consider a cane or walker. Regular Exercise: encourage low-impact activities like walking, tai chi, or water aerobics. Vision and Hearing Checks: both are crucial for spatial awareness and overall stability. Medication Review: a pharmacist can assess for side effects like dizziness. Hire Care Professionals to provide appropriate nutrition, hydration and engagement in meaningful activities on a regular basis. By implementing these measures, families can reduce the fall risk and promote a safe and independent lifestyle for their aging loved ones.
