According to the
National Safety Council,
“Falls among people aged 65 and older is now the leading cause of
injury deaths,” said Bill O’Connell, executive director of Government
Affairs for the National Safety Council. “Each year, one in three
Americans 65 and older falls and nearly 16,000 die from complications
from a fall.”
Having a care management professional review the home safety of

deficiencies will give you peace of mind and an action plan to create
