What does it mean to have a trip or fall?

Something either physically or environmentally is causing an imbalanced event.

Should an Older Loved One Report a Trip?

Absolutely! A physical therapist can assess the individual and environment to reduce future imbalanced events or injuries. A trip is a warning sign that something is off kilter.

What should YOU do?

Find a physical therapist for an evaluation of your loved one's posture, strength, balance and mobility level to reduce future fall risk.
