Falls Prevention Awareness Day

One in four Americans age 65 or older falls every year. But falls don't have to be part of aging! A Falls Prevention Awareness Day will be held from 1 to 3 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 20, at MAC.

Featured will be local vendors, refreshments, and fall risk screenings for older adults, conducted by UMES physical therapy students. Also planned is a medication review for older adults, conducted by UMES pharmacy students. For this screening, participants should bring a list of all their medications, which will be reviewed for meds that could be related to falling. Admission is free and all ages are welcome. For more information, call MAC at 410-742-0505, ext. 169. This event is being sponsored by MAC, along with the University of Maryland Eastern Shore physical therapy and pharmacy departments.
