Fall Prevention: Facts, Risks, and Solutions
September 18 @ 12:00 pm - 12:45 pm
FreeDr. Tzivia Moreen, MD, is back to share her knowledge and experience in managing older adult issues. Falls become more common and have greater potential for creating disability as we age. Co-morbidities, such as blood pressure fluctuations, visual changes, and balance issues, can increase the risk of falls. Listen and learn what you can do to manage risk factors to avoid falls and injuries. Prevention is the best method of avoiding injuries, which can compromise independence, interfere with the enjoyment of activities, and lead to medical complications.
Free community health lecture hosted by the New Canaan YMCA in partnership with Stamford Health.
Registration recommended. Walk-ins welcome!
