ComForCare and At Your Side Home Care Hosts Fall Prevention Webinar on First Day of Fall

ComForCare and At Your Side Home Care Hosts Fall Prevention Webinar on First Day of Fall

Webinar to address causes and solutions of falls in older adults

PR Newswire

DETROIT, Sept. 18, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- In light of Fall Prevention Awareness Day on September 22, ComForCare and At Your Side Home Care, a franchised provider of in-home caregiving services, will host a webinar with Tiffany Shubert, PhD, PT, a nationally recognized fall expert, who will present "Falls in Older Adults: Identifying Causes and Solutions."

The webinar will be from 7:30pm ET- 8:15pm on Tuesday, September 22. Those interested in attending can register HERE.

The webinar will review:

  • Factors and causes that lead to falls
  • Which medications increase fall risk
  • Practical tools to use to manage fall risk
  • Solutions and steps most important to try and embrace

"Each year, one in four older adults experiences a fall, and those who fall once are two to three times more likely to fall again. The result of a fall can be both physical and emotional, and in some instances, the fall can be deadly," says Stephanie Wierzbicka, Manager, Strategic Health Programs. "Our mission at ComForCare is to create safer communities and we hope this webinar will be a valuable resource for older adults and their caregivers."
