Make this year your year to avoid falls
Falls are the number one reason for injury-related death, hospitalization and emergency department visits for older adults in Canada (Parachute, 2023). Provincial Geriatrics Leadership Ontario is pleased to share two new resources from the Ontario Osteoporosis Strategy that can help older adults and others ring in a New Year without falls.
“Your Guide to Strong Bones” provides important tips for good nutrition to build strong bones. “Too Fit to Fracture” summarizes evidence based recommendations to help reduce the risk of fractures.
