A serious fall can have serious consequences. Every year, approximately 2 million senior adults are treated in hospital emergency rooms as a result of falls. In fact, a senior adult who falls is 20 times more likely to fracture a hip than someone under 65. If you or someone you know is at risk for falling, we can help. We will develop a customized Fall Prevention program for them.
Our team of professionals will:
Teach individuals, families, and caregivers about what causes falls
Assess your lower body strength, balance, vision and other faculties that may contribute to falls
Provide personalized strengthening and mobility exercises in the comfort of your own home
Assess your home environment and recommend safety measures
Collaborate with your doctor after surgery or hospitalization
Help improve your independence and quality of life
Our services are covered by Medicare, Medicaid and most private health insurance plans. Ask your doctor about our Fall Prevention Program.
