Eligibility<br />

You are eligible for this service if you:<br />

● are aged 65 or over<br />

● are experiencing falls<br />

● live in the Royal Borough of Greenwich or<br />

are registered with a Greenwich GP.<br />

Not all people who fall need to be seen by a specialist falls<br />

service, most health or social care services for older<br />

adults also help people who have fallen.<br />

Our aim is to:<br />

work with you to help<br />

prevent falls and support<br />

you to engage in<br />

activities which you<br />

enjoy, to enhance your<br />

independence, safety<br />

and quality of life.<br />
