Fracture Liaison Services

Fracture Liaison Services (FLS) are coordinated programs designed to identify and manage patients who have experienced a fracture, often due to weak bones (osteoporosis). Their goal is to prevent future fractures by assessing bone health, educating patients, and recommending treatments or lifestyle changes. By ensuring proper follow-up and care, FLS helps reduce the risk of additional fractures, improving patient outcomes and quality of life. These services are typically multidisciplinary, involving healthcare professionals working together to provide comprehensive support after an initial fracture.
