Fall Management

Fall management involves strategies to prevent, reduce, and respond to falls, especially among older adults or those at risk. It includes assessing individual risks, making living environments safer by removing hazards, encouraging exercise to improve strength and balance, and ensuring proper use of assistive devices. When a fall occurs, prompt assessment helps identify injuries and prevent future incidents. Overall, fall management aims to maintain safety, independence, and quality of life by proactively addressing factors that contribute to falls.
