Collection: Fall Prevention & Solution

Falls are particularly common among the elderly and can lead to serious injuries like hip and wrist fractures, dislocations, head injuries, and in some cases, can be fatal. Various factors contribute to falls, including medical history, cognitive impairment, gait disorders, and environmental hazards.

Implementing preventive measures is crucial, especially for those identified as high-risk for falls. These measures can include installing grab rails and safety equipment in wet areas to prevent slipping, using mobility aids for better stability, wearing hip protectors to cushion falls, and removing clutter and potential hazards from the home to create a safer environment.
