Anyone can fall, but falls increase in likelihood and seriousness as we age. It is important to recognize that falls are NOT a normal part of ageing. They can be a sign of health concerns, issues, or illnesses. Falls should never be overlooked.
Falls in older adults can lead to serious negative health outcomes and they are the leading cause of injury and hospitalization for older adults.
