COMMUNITY PARAMEDICINE & FALL PREVENTION
Fire and EMS agencies have a unique opportunity, through a social services-based Community Paramedicine program, to perform fall prevention efforts in the home where the majority of falls occur. For many agencies, falls are the number one reason people summon 911. Subsequently, implementing a fall prevention program, geared toward reducing the number of preventable and repeat falls, could be a benefit for any fire department or EMS agency.
