Fall Prevention

A fall is often the event that changes an older adult's independence. Most of the risk factors — blood pressure medications, vision, balance, foot problems, home hazards — can be identified and reduced.

What to Expect

Your physician assesses balance and gait, reviews medications that contribute to dizziness or unsteadiness, checks vision and footwear, and goes through practical changes at home. Physical therapy referral is arranged where strength and balance training would help.
