National Falls Prevention Awareness Day

The Senate recently passed a bill declaring September 22, 2013 National Falls Prevention Day.  They want to promote and increase public awareness about how to prevent and reduce falls among older adults.

Falls are becoming so common that one out of every three adults over the age of 65 will fall each year. “Fall prevention programs are a solid investment that save people’s lives…” said Kohl, Chairman of the Senate Special Committee on Aging.
