Vancouver Branch – Workshop – Falls Prevention

How Devastating is a Fall for you?

As we get older, broken bones take longer to heal. Reduced movement from the necessity to protect a bone or torn ligament or muscle needing to heal can then cause other problems. COME to this workshop to learn more on:
• the impact of a Fall on our overall health
• what hazards lie in our homes and local areas
• how to reduce the risk of Falling
• what exercises can help us keep our Balance and strength?

This 90-minute workshop is available FREE of charge. Presented by experienced and well trained volunteer, Barb Mikulec, the workshop will present practical and usable information.
NOTE: The workshop is not intended to provide any specific legal, medical or financial advice. It will provide a better understanding of the nature of falls and offer practical suggestions.
