Are you injured from a slip or fall? If so, you are part of a remarkable growing trend. The number of car crashes has actually fallen more than 25 percent since 2002. Unfortunately, that decrease has been lost because of an increase in the number of deaths that are the result of slip and fall accidents, which are up more than 45 percent.
Admittedly, there is a lack of knowledge about risk factors for slip and fall, and proper methods of prevention. Some people believe that falls are a normal part of aging are not as preventable or effective as automobile safety or gun safety. Increased numbers of baby boomers will quite naturally, increase as the number of baby boomers turn seventy years old or more. Special care must be taken to ensure that preventable conditions are closely monitored in an effort to create environments that are safer for populations that are prone to slips and falls. This includes renovation bath and kitchen areas, stairways, as well as exterior paths and walkways. The numbers do not lie, and the numbers always change for the better when we focus on the problem and create solutions.
