About this event

Description

Falls are the leading cause of injury death for Americans age 65 and older, and this year 1 in 3 people over that age will fall. Even those who are not injured may then develop a fear of falling which may cause them to limit their activities, reducing mobility and physical fitness, increasing their risk of falling. Learn the risk factors, causes and consequences of a fall; simple things you can do around the home and when out and about to reduce your risk of falling and what steps you can take to improve your balance and maintain your quality of life
