Prevent Falls at Home – Check out the Spot the Hazard Home Safety Checklist!
A fall can have a significant impact on the lifestyle and independence of an older adult. Falls are the leading cause of injury among seniors in Alberta. Every year 1 in 3 older Albertans will fall.
Finding Balance is an education program and public awareness campaign designed to educate and empower older Albertans to stay independent and prevent falls.
The Spot the Hazard Home Safety Checklist guides you to:
- Identify hidden hazards in your home
- Prevent falls and injuries
- Maintain your independence
