Balance and Fall Prevention
Extended Home Care’s balance and fall prevention program helps patients realize that falling does not have to be a part of aging. Did you know that 1 in 3 adults over the age of 65 fall each year and 40% of those patients will require assistance in recuperating.
Our nurses and therapists provide each and every Extended patient with the tools needed to help stay mobile and independent. Our balance and fall prevention program includes:
- Fall risk assessment by an Extended physical therapist.
- Review of current medications and any health issues and concerns.
- Development of a customized exercise plan to improve balance and coordination.
If you or a loved one are in need of our Balance and Fall Prevention Program, please reach out to a Extended Home Care representative.
