Falls are the most common
Falls are the most common cause of injury among older Canadians with an estimated 1 in 3 seniors aged 65 and older falling at least once. The injuries that result from falls often lead to hospitalizations and increased disability and mortality. Injuries often include fractures in the hip, pelvis or wrist area which can develop into chronic pain, decreased mobility and decreased independence.
The personal and economic consequences of falls can be mitigated through fall prevention strategies. Fall injury prevention includes strategies, recommendations and therapeutic approaches that help to minimize the incidence of falls.
In this interview, registered physiotherapists Hoong Phang and David Friesen explore the risk factors around falls, common injuries, rehabilitation programs and falls prevention strategies.
