1 in 4 people over the age of 65 living at home fall every year.
20-30% of people who fall suffer a moderate to severe injury.
Falls are the leading cause of fatal injuries among aging adults.
Falling is NOT an inevitable result of aging and can be prevented through lifestyle adjustments and fall prevention programs.
