It's National Falls Prevention Awareness Day!
Why is that important?? Take a look at some of these stats from the CDC.🤔
👉One out of five falls causes a serious injury such as broken bones or a head injury,
👉Each year, 3 million older people are treated in emergency departments for fall injuries.
👉Over 800,000 patients a year are hospitalized because of a fall injury, most often because of a head injury or hip fracture.
👉Each year at least 300,000 older people are hospitalized for hip fractures.
👉More than 95% of hip fractures are caused by falling,8 usually by falling sideways.
👉Falls are the most common cause of traumatic brain injuries (TBI).
👉In 2015, the total medical costs for falls totaled more than $50 billion. Medicare and Medicaid shouldered 75% of these costs.
What can you do to prevent yourself or loved ones from experiencing a fall?
