Description:

Working as a multidisciplinary team, healthcare providers can help identify and manage patients at risk of falling. You can help reduce falls by screening all older persons once a year for previous falls and/or balance problems.

For those who screen positive, perform a fall risk assessment, and help patients understand and act upon the findings using proven prevention strategies.
