WHAT IS FALLS PREVENTION WEEK?
Australians today enjoy a longer life expectancy than previous generations, but for some this is disrupted by falls. As we age, our sure-footedness declines and, at the same time, our bones become increasingly brittle.
At least 1 in 3 people over 65 will experience a fall every year. And falls are the leading cause of injury-related hospitalisations for over 65s.
Luckily, there is a range of aids and equipment that can help minimise the risk of falling in the home. Our team of local Equipment Specialist will take you through a selection of these products and demonstrate their application for falls prevention.
