Preventing Falls (Injury Prevention for the Elderly)
Falls are the leading cause of accidental death for adults 65 & older. Because of vision problems, osteoporosis, poor mobility & frailty, older people are especially at risk for hip fractures & other injuries resulting from falls. In "Preventing Falls" your caregivers will learn to recognize & correct hazardous situations that can lead to falls - such as slippery shoes, wet or uneven surfaces, getting out of bed incorrectly, reaching for something - & teach safe behaviors to the elderly people in their case. Includes instructor's manual, student workbook, course exam.
