Preventing Falls: Essential Tips

Falls are a leading cause of injury and death, especially among adults aged 65 and older, often caused by a combination of individual health factors, activities, and environmental hazards.

Preventive measures include regular exercise to strengthen muscles and improve balance, home modifications like better lighting and handrails, and maintaining eye health and proper footwear to reduce hazards.
