Falls risk assessment and management is a process used to identify and address factors that increase the risk of falls in older adults. This assessment involves evaluating factors such as balance, mobility, medications, vision, and home environment to determine an individual's risk of falling. By identifying these risk factors with the help of assessment performed by your GP and other allied health professionals, the specialist geriatrician helps to develop a personalized plan to help prevent falls and minimize the risk of injury. This may include exercises to improve balance, medication adjustments, and home modifications. Falls risk assessment and management are essential for promoting the safety and independence of older adults.
