Prevent Falls

November is Fall Prevention Month! Did you know that 1 in 3 older adults experiences a fall each year? Falls can be life-altering, and while older adults with frailty are at higher risk, falls can happen to anyone! To help reduce your chances of falling, consider improving your strength and balance, eating a nutritious diet, and staying hydrated. It’s also important to identify and address hazards in your home—where most falls occur. Regularly check your vision and hearing, and review your medications with your healthcare provider. One fall can change it all, so act now and learn how!
