Abstract

Falls are the number one cause of injury in older adults and as the population grows older the number of falls per year will only increase. This project aims to spread awareness of the various resources available to those at risk of falling in the Burlington area. This was done by creating an easily accessed standardized handout that can be shared with any patients that providers think are at risk.
