This guide provides simple and practical information for caregivers about fall prevention. In Canada, millions of people like you provide care to someone 65 years of age or older.

Caregivers are commonly family members, friends and community members who provide physical and/or emotional support to someone needing care. Many caregivers are also facing their own challenges related to their caregiver role, their own aging and can also be at risk of falls.

The information in this guide can help you learn how to prevent falls, both for yourself and the person you care for.

This episode is one part of The Caregivers' Guide to Fall Prevention. You can access the full guide, including all the checklists and tools referenced in this episode, at parachute.ca/caregiver.
