Falls are one of the most common health risks for seniors and can lead to serious injuries, hospitalizations, and loss of independence. Preventing falls starts with awareness and making simple but effective changes at home and in daily routines.
By creating a safer environment and using supportive products like grab bars, non-slip mats, and mobility aids, seniors can reduce the chances of accidents. Regular exercise, vision checks, and medication reviews also play a big role in fall prevention.
