Falls Prevention
Falls are a leading cause of injury, hospitalisation and loss of independence for the people you support, but most are preventable. Recognising who is at risk, addressing the factors that contribute to falls, and responding well when one does happen can make a significant difference to a person's safety, confidence and quality of life.
In this module, we'll explore the common risk factors that contribute to falls, the strategies that help prevent them, and the steps to take when responding to a fall.
