Fall Prevention for Older Adults

Home care agencies play a critical role in helping older adults age in place safely and comfortably. Preventing falls is a crucial aspect of this care since it is a leading cause of injury and hospitalization among seniors. Home care providers can help reduce fall risk by assessing the home environment for potential hazards, such as poor lighting and tripping hazards, and implementing interventions like grab bars and non-slip surfaces. By prioritizing fall prevention, home care agencies promote the independence, health, and quality of life of older adults.
