5 Warning Signs for Seniors with Falling Risks

March 28th, 2010 Posted in Senior Falling Prevention

  1. Loss of balance – A loss of balance occurs before a fall. If you are having a hard time balancing then you should start using a walking aide like a walker.
  2. Problems with discerning distance - Eye sight problems occur commonly in seniors. These may make it difficult to balance properly and to tell how far away a tripping hazard is.
  3. Muscle weakness - Losing muscle in the legs is particularly problematic. Exercise may help regain lost muscles.
  4. Glaucoma - This common eye problem may make it difficult to see properly.
  5. Previous falls - The best indicator that a senior will fall in the future is if they have fallen in the past. This may be a sign that more intensive care is required, or maybe a medical alarm will suite the seniors needs best.

If you think it is time for you or your loved one to get a medical alarm, call us today. We offer great service at an affordable monthly rate.
