Fall prevention program for older adults
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study is testing a program that combines everyday activities (like dressing or cooking) with other measures to reduce falls in older adults. If you're 65+, have fallen recently, and don't have certain health issues, this trial might help you stay safer at home.
