Have you fallen down lately? Do you stumble, trip or feel afraid you might fall? Studies show that one out of every three older adults will fall each year and two-thirds of those who fall will fall again within six months. Falling can often result in a serious injury such as a hip fracture. Many hip fracture patients end up needing an assistive device such as a walker or cane for the rest of their lives. Prevention is the key to avoid falling!
