Each year about one-third of all people over age 65 will fall. The consequences can be significant, particularly for older people.
However, falls are not an inevitable part of growing older and there are things you can do to help reduce the risk of falling.
This includes:
speaking to your pharmacist about the medicines you are taking
making simple changes to the home environment
doing exercises to improve strength and balance
to regularly have your vision and hearing checked
