Evidence-Based Fall Prevention Programs

Evidence-Based Fall Prevention Programs are structured initiatives designed to reduce the risk of falls, particularly among older adults. These programs use research-backed strategies, such as exercise to improve strength and balance, home safety assessments to reduce hazards, and education on fall risks. By combining these proven methods, the programs aim to enhance mobility and overall well-being, ultimately helping individuals maintain their independence while minimizing the chances of falling. Implementing these practices can lead to safer living environments and improved quality of life for those at risk of falls.
