FALL PREVENTION WEEK<br />
September 17 – 22<br />
Falls in older adults are common. More than one-third of older adults living in the community fall at<br />
least once a year, resulting in broken bones, cuts, head injuries, and visits to the emergency room or the<br />
hospital. Many older adults stop going out and doing things they enjoy because they are worried about<br />
falling and getting hurt. Is that you?<br />
Join in the countywide effort to stop falls by attending these classes<br />
and more offered throughout the county during this week.<br />
