Falls are one of the leading causes of death for aging adults – and unfortunately your client or even one of your own parents, could be next.
They don’t realize it when they’re sitting still, but the second they stand – they trip, sway, stumble or even fall. Some may attribute it to dizziness from standing up too fast or call it a “one-time thing” – but as therapists in the rehab field we know better.
And hopefully your client’s fall won’t lead to death but there’s other cause for concern when it comes to falls… decreased strength, disengagement due to lack of movement, hospitalization and more.
With this evidence-based training — A Clinician’s Guide to Geriatric Care — you’ll get a complete look at the strategies necessary to reduce falls and potentially save your client’s life.
Our experts will guide you step-by-step through each module, so you’ll be able to easily identify risk factors for falls and guide your clients through exercise programs that work uniquely for their needs. Gain the confidence you need to effectively treat and recommend routines with your clients, especially when it comes to fall prevention techniques they can continue to use outside the clinic.
Walk away with new approaches to help your clients age confidently, including improved sleep, posture, medication management, and so much more. Plus, you’ll gain dozens of fall reduction exercises and activities when you enroll today…
