Fall Prevention is Standard for Our Clients

Senior Home Care by Angels Cambridge & Guelph provides proactive home care solutions by educating our clients and families about fall-related risks, and the effects of falls in the senior community

Falls are the second leading cause of accidental death. The older adult population accounts for 75% of falls that result in accidental death. For falls that result in a hip fracture and hospitalization, one-third of those people will die within a year. Falls not only affect the quality of life of the individual, but also affect caregivers and family. Health care costs for falls and rehabilitation average billions every year!

Even if the fall does not result in hospitalization, fear of falling becomes a major factor in how seniors live their daily lives. Fear of falling often leads to inactivity and loss of confidence. This, in turn, produces a cycle of fear, loss of self-confidence, and inactivity, thereby decreasing the quality of life and increasing the risk of falls.

From the most overlooked areas of the home, to making it easier to navigate through one’s home, Senior Home Care by Angels Cambridge & Guelph can identify areas of the home that pose safety risks and vulnerability in everyday life, and provide home care solutions.

Helping Our Cambridge, Guelph and Surrounding Communities Understand the Risks of Falls for Seniors

We can help show you how with a free in-home assessment. We also conduct free seminars educating all interested individuals who want to make a difference in someone’s life.
