Falls are the leading cause of injury-related death among adults age 65 and older.
We are here for you with tips on how to lessen your fall risk and how to stay fit from anywhere!
Get physically active and exercise regularly to improve your mobility, balance, strength and flexibility.
Wear proper footwear such as shoes with soles that provide grip and traction.
Get your vision and hearing checked to keep up with any changes that may increase your chances of a fall if left untreated.
Talk to your doctor to learn the common side effects of your medications, like dizziness, so you can be extra careful when you're taking them.
