Slips and Falls

Studies have shown that each year, thousands of older people—those 65 and older—fall. One out of five falls causes serious injuries including broken bones, hip fractures and head injuries.

What it means to a caregiver after a fall?

First of all, injuries can make it hard for a person to get around, do everyday activities, or live on their own and have to be taken care by others. Most importantly, the expenses involved in hospitalization, therapy and nursing can be high.

What are the risk factors that cause a person to fall?

Besides health factors, one the main reasons for falling is lack of grip on smooth surfaces, uneven steps and mainly slippery bathrooms.
