Event Details

To prevent injuries, reduce fall risks, and maximize independence at home, its important for seniors to incorporate home safety tips and follow a safety checklist. Falls are the leading cause of fatal and nonfatal injuries in seniors 65 and older. With aging skin and decreased bone density, seniors often have difficulty recovering from falls physically. 

The instructor will share some steps, combined with safe home care services, which can seniors age in place longer.
