Falls prevention
Falls for individuals with balance issues or the elderly can have serious consequences. Our clinic can help prevent falls by offering a tailored strategy and equipment to help prevent falls.
Some basic strategies to help prevent falls can include:
1. Remove rugs that are not firmly attached to the floor.
2. Repair cords that are lying across the floor.
3. Move furniture out of the way to have a clear path.
4. Wear shoes that fit well and have low heels.
5. Use a cane or walker if you need help with balance.
6. Install grab bars in your bathroom and by your bed.
7. Put a nonslip mat in your bathtub or shower.
8. Use a nightlight to see where you are walking at night.
9. Take time when you get up from a chair or bed.
10. Ask your doctor about medicines that might make you dizzy or sleepy.
