5203 |aThis report discusses the problems presented by seniors’ falls and presents best practices to reduce their occurrence. A comprehensive overview of data on falls includes statistics on fall-related mortality. Risk factors for seniors’ falls are organized as biological, behavioural, environmental, and socio-economic. The discussion of best practices is in the context of factors that affect the sustainability of fall-prevention programs. The report concludes by addressing the potential of provincial and territorial data for supporting fall-prevention initiatives.
