MOST FALLS ARE N/T INEVITABLE
Pamela Holmes, Preventing Falls
Programme Manager at Help the Aged said
"Our research shows there is a very
clear gap between perception and
reality when it comes to falls."
"We need to shake off this image of
falls being an inevitable part of
getting older and recognise that it is
a problem that can be largely avoided."
Only 44% of those asked said they take
any specific measures to prevent
themselves falling compared to 91% who
protect themselves against burglary.
