The fall experts at SafelyYou have partnered with the product experts at Direct Supply to bring you The Essential Guide to Mobility Aids: From Maximizing Function to Reducing Fall Risk. It includes all the details of top mobility aids, so you can help residents make the most of walkers, wheelchairs, and canes—while using them safely to help prevent falls.
Belmont Village Senior Living maintained an exceptional rate of 4% of ER visits resulting from falls, compared to the industry standard of 17-25% for those 80 and over.
Mobility aids play a role in falls—and fall prevention. That’s why our October National Fall Huddle is all about walkers, wheelchairs, and canes, covering everything you need to know to use them safely and reduce fall risk. You can earn 1 NAB or nursing CEU for attending.
At SafelyYou, we’re committed to fall prevention, that’s why we support our customers with fall huddles and root cause analysis, helping to prevent future falls. Today, we’re helping to raise awareness of fall prevention through our Preventing Falls this Fall & Beyond campaign and every day, we continue this work, sharing essential information through our Fall Huddle Hub, available on our newly relaunched website.
It’s Falls Prevention Awareness Week, today through Friday, September 24! To kick it off, we’re sharing our experts’ top 10 tips for fall prevention. Only SafelyYou has reviewed over 20k fall events, making us uniquely qualified to share insights that help prevent falls.
