Dizzy? Unsteady? Afraid of falling? You are not alone. Learn how to protect yourself.
Did you know nearly 3 million older adults are treated for injuries related to a fall in emergency rooms each year? One in five falls causes a severe injury, such as broken ankles, arms and wrists, hip fractures, and traumatic brain injuries including concussions. Falls are not an inevitable part of aging.
Learn how to protect yourself or a family member. This workshop will raise awareness about risk factors for falls and to learn how to reduce them in your home and community, and in regards to their medications, vision, nutrition, and physical activity. Professional health providers will examine your fall potential by simple testing. You’ll leave with a written evaluation and recommendations for strength and balance improvement.
Limited space. Registration is recommended to attend the workshop.
Free and open to the public.
