Educating Seniors about Fall Prevention is just another way we can help.
American Medical Alarms joined the fight last year to help educate seniors about fall prevention. Being a leader in the medical alarm industry we hear so many stories about seniors falling and the sometimes devistating effects falls can have on seniors. While our medical alarm is vital in helping seniors who fall get the help they need, educating seniors on ways they can prevent falls is equally important.
We are here to help seniors, that’s what we do. We want every senior to have our medical alarm system because we know that seniors with our system are able to live independently in their home for an average of six years longer than those without one and that they are more likely to remain active (a major factor in preventing falls) because they feel more secure knowing they can get help if they need it. We also know that it provides a great deal of peace of mind for seniors and their families.
We also want every senior to be healthy and remain active for as long as they can so we began an aggressive campaign last year to help educate seniors on fall prevention. It’s another way that we can help increase the level of protection and safety our seniors need. There are some basic steps that all seniors should take to help prevent falls which we have outlined in our Fall Prevention Guide. This guide is FREE and is included with our brochure which you can request online at http://www.americanmedicalalarms.com or by calling Toll Free (800) 542-0438.
If you are an business or organization that works closely with seniors in your community please call and speak with us about this and other Free resources we have available.
