Fall Risk Assessment
Believe it or not, falling is a serious risk for many age groups. While the media often paints a picture of elderly individuals being the only ones at risk, that’s not always the case. Many people can be at risk of falling in their own homes. Whether you are someone who's aging in place or you have limited mobility due to a health condition, there is plenty you can do to stay safe. PM Medical Products offers fall risk assessment services for seniors. Keep reading for more information, then stop in and see us. We’re located in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, near Scranton.
Prevention
One of the best things you can do to prevent falls from happening is to participate in regular physical activity. You’ll want to try exercises that help improve balance and coordination. If you have an underlying condition that impacts your mobility level, this is something you’ll want to address with your doctor. Review your medications to find out if there are any that might be making you feel dizzy or unbalanced. You may also benefit from having your vision checked as poor vision can increase your risk of falling.
Home Modifications
While a fall risk assessment is instrumental in determining if you have a low, moderate, or high risk, there are also home modifications that may help. Your ultimate decision will depend on your individual needs, but there are plenty of options to pick from.
