Are You or a Loved One at Risk of Falling?

As we age, the risk of falling becomes a serious concern. Did you know that one in four Americans over the age of 65 falls each year? These falls can lead to serious injuries, loss of independence, and a lower quality of life. But here’s the good news: falls can be prevented, and at Upperline Health – Somerset, we have the latest technology and treatments to help keep you or your loved ones safe. Upperline Health’s Life in Balance fall prevention program uses state of the art technology to develop a plan for you or loved one that can keep you on your feet and balanced!

Understanding the Risk: Why Falling is a Big Deal

Falling is one of the biggest health problems for older adults. For those over 65, the risk of falling increases every year. And if you’re over 80, that risk nearly doubles! A fall can lead to broken bones, hospital stays, and even the need for long-term care. But it doesn’t have to be this way. By understanding your risk and taking action, you can stay safe and independent for longer.

What Increases Your Risk of Falling?

Many things can increase your risk of falling. Some of the most common include:

Weakness in your legs and feet
Balance problems
History of falling
Numbness in your legs and feet
Pain in your feet or legs
Poor footwear choices
Trouble walking or standing up from a chair

If you have any of these issues, you may be at a higher risk of falling. But don’t worry—there’s something you can do about it!

Upperline Health Has the Solution: Cutting-Edge Technology to Keep You Safe: Introducing the Life in Balance Fall Prevention Program.

At Upperline Health, we use the latest technology to assess your risk of falling. Our easy-to-use tools can quickly identify the factors that put you at risk and help us create a personalized plan to keep you safe.

Here’s how it works:

Quick Screening using the Life in Balance Technology:

First, you’ll answer a few simple questions about your health, your home, and your daily activities. This helps us understand your background and any past falls you may have had.

Easy Testing:

Next, we’ll do a few quick tests to check your balance, strength, and how well you walk. These tests are easy and don’t take long, but they give us a lot of important information.

Once we have the results, we’ll create a plan just for you. This plan might include special exercises, better footwear, or even a custom-made brace to help you stay steady on your feet. We’ll also give you tips on how to make your home safer and reduce your risk of falling.
