Fall Prevention

There are few things worse for an elderly person than to feel frightened in their own home. Many people are terrified of falling, which happens often to older people. In the United States, slips and falls are the second greatest cause of mortality, and most victims are elderly people. Even if the fall doesn't end in death, it may prolong hospitalization and result in long-term bodily harm. Fortunately, there is a solution. All of that may be avoided with companion care from Visiting Angels, which offers supervision and help to seniors in the comfort of their own homes.
