WHO WE ARE
Our Mission
To reduce falls and fall-related injuries in older adults through community collaboration, awareness, education and effective interventions.
“Falls and related injuries including hip fractures in the elderly deserves the same attention as other chronic diseases due to the significant mortality and morbidity associated with it. We could do more towards awareness and recognition of the problem and early prevention and interventions to avoid recurrence. Efforts of the Whole Home Fall Prevention Task Force (FPTF) are timely and will go a long way in achieving success in this area for our community seniors.”
