We all have a role to play in helping to prevent falls and falls-related injuries. However, as a healthcare professional, you play an essential role in ensuring that screenings, assessments, interventions, and necessary follow-ups occur based on best available evidence for clinical practice.

Along with the participation from a fully informed and engaged older patient, healthcare professionals with complementary backgrounds are encouraged to work together to share their expertise, knowledge, and skills toward a common goal. For more information to support you in this process, please consult the sections below at your convenience.
