Falls and fall-related injuries are a common and serious problem in older people living in the community. At least one-third of people over 65 years of age fall each year, and 10-20% of these falls result in serious injury. The good news is, there is a lot you can do about it - falls are CONTROLLABLE! In this presentation we will answer some key questions:

- How and why do falls happen?

- How do you know if you, or a loved one, are at risk?

- What are the best strategies to minimise falls risk?

Be Mobile Physiotherapy are a team of Northern Beaches based physiotherapists who work exclusively with older adults 55+. They’re passionate about helping people stay strong, independent and able to continue doing the things they love.

When: 15th December, 3PM
