Falls are the number one cause of injury among adults. They are also a leading cause of hospitalization and death. Approximately 27,000 injuries and deaths are reported each year. These falls are a major concern for caregivers, especially those who care for an elderly loved one.
One of the most common causes of falls is due to poor posture. Fortunately, there are some simple steps that can be taken to improve your senior's ability to sit up and stand.
To start with, use a sturdy nightstand and lamp. Make sure that there is plenty of light near the bed so that the senior can see where he or she is going.
Getting regular exercise is another way to improve balance. A moderate regimen of exercise may include swimming or walking. This will not only help the elderly get out of bed, but will increase their flexibility.
An older adult's ability to get up from a bed is a factor in whether or not he or she has a fall. Ensure that the bed is in a place where it is not difficult to get in and out of.
A bedside light can be a great way to minimize the risk of a fall. Another is using the pool noodle, which is a buoyant tube attached to a pool. It is connected to a fitted sheet.
You should also consider installing a personal alarm system. Medical Alarms NZ These devices signal for assistance in case of a fall.
