Fall Prevention Week:
9/21/15 (Monday) –  9/29/15 (Tuesday)

See below for exercises that help to prevent falls.  This information is especially critical for Seniors over 65 or for others who may be out of shape.

1 in 3 adults (65+) falls every year.  The San Mateo County Fall Prevention Task Force says that falls account for 80% of accidental injury deaths in individuals over the age of 85, and 20% in ages 75 to 84.  Here are several free, easy exercises to help prevent falls.  It can’t hurt to learn them for future reference or for a senior friend.
