Fall Prevention

Fall Prevention in Nursing Homes:
Nursing home residents are twice as likely to fall as older adults who are living in the community. Every year about 1800 people die as a result of falling in nursing homes. Of those who survive a fall, many suffer from fear of falling, disability, loss of function and reduced quality of life.
This video highlights common fall hazards found throughout a typical day for a nursing home resident. The locations addressed in this video are the bedroom, bathroom hallways and corridors, lighting and out-of-doors. Footwear and wheelchair safety are also discussed.
This project was supported by funds from the Bureau of Health Professions(BHPr), Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) under grant number UB4HP19060, Gateway Geriatric Education Center, for $418,203.

Very educative , just concerned, occupational therapists weren’t mentioned here and most of our work given to physical therapists in this short video

If i wanted to watch something stupid or cartooney, I would be watching Paw Patrol right now.

[@MariannaDeSelms]

the unnecessary cartoon scenes is just wasting time unnecessarily!

[@MariannaDeSelms]

This has been educational, yes. but I think I would've enjoyed the video more if they didn't add the stupid immature cartoon characters and their stupid immature comments. we're talking about fall prevention here. This is a serious subject and should taken seriously and not treated as some fun subject that you can joke around with.
