Falls are not an inevitable part of getting older but can become more common and be harder to recover from. According to the CDC, over 800,000 older adults per year are hospitalized due to fall injuries, most often a head injury or a hip fracture. If you or someone you know is at risk of falling, talk to your healthcare provider or contact the Angels Care office closest to you for more information about our Falls Prevention program. angelscarehealth.com

Falls are not an inevitable part of aging, and there are many proactive steps individuals can take to reduce their risk.

Talk to Your Doctor: It's essential to communicate any falls or concerns about falling with your healthcare provider. They can help identify potential risk factors and develop a plan to address them.

Review Medications: Certain medications can increase the risk of falls due to side effects such as dizziness or drowsiness. Your doctor can review your medications and make any necessary adjustments.

Check Eyes and Feet: Regular vision checks and proper footwear can help improve balance and reduce the risk of tripping.

Stay Active: Engaging in regular physical activity, including strength and balance exercises, can help improve muscle strength and coordination, reducing the likelihood of falls.

Remove Trip Hazards: Keep floors clear of clutter, secure loose rugs, and ensure walkways are well-lit to reduce the risk of tripping.

By incorporating these steps into your routine, you can significantly reduce your risk of falling and maintain your independence and quality of life as you age.
