Fall Prevention and Balance Program
Do you or someone you know need tips for maintaining physical flexibility and balance and preventing falls? This program is for you. A medical Fellow from Summa Health Care’s Geriatric Department will be here to talk about the reasons people fall, why it is so important to prevent falls, and what you can to limit falls and their severity. Examples of proper shoes, canes, walkers, and possible hazards in the household will be discussed. Handouts will be provided, as well as safety checklists, and demonstrations of exercises to maintain flexibility. This program will benefit adults of any age.
