Fall prevention is vital to successful aging in place. Each year, one third of adults over the age of 65 fall. Of these, nearly two thirds of these will fall again within six months. Each successive fall is more likely to cause a debilitating injury that will prevent a return to the level of independence enjoyed before the fall. Fully one third of falls are due to environmental hazards within the home. If you or a loved one is concerned about falling, please get in touch with us. We can help prevent falls by installing grab bars, safety rails, and other hand holds in and around your home. Remember, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure!
