Loop is hosting a webinar series to celebrate the launch of new posters promoting fall prevention and healthy aging!
The webinar series will focus on the poster’s three calls to action:
Move your body, improve your health, and remove hazards.
How do we prevent falls in older adults without being overprotective? For those who are frail or approaching frailty, daily activities create risk for falls.
To understand why falls happen, we need to understand how the nervous system reacts after balance is lost, and how the ability to recover can be impacted by neurological impairments or aging.
Trish Rawn and Nicole Seymour from the Centre for Effective Practice will discuss tools, resources and workflow strategies (including engaging all team members) to optimize fall prevention in primary care.
Join us on March 15, from 12-1pm (Eastern), where Dr. Danielle Bouchard discusses the AAIMS (Attract, Adapt, IMplement and Sustain) project, which is focused on evidence informed exercise programs to prevent falls.
