Fall Prevention & Safety Monitoring

Helping Seniors Stay Safe, Independent & Confident

Falls are one of the leading causes of injury among older adults, yet many are preventable with the right support. At My PSW Cares, we provide proactive fall prevention and safety monitoring services to help seniors and individuals with mobility challenges stay safe in their homes.

The Importance of Fall Prevention

“Every year, 1 in 3 Canadian seniors experiences a fall, and falls account for 85% of all injury-related hospitalizations among older adults.” – [Public Health Agency of Canada]

As mobility changes with age, so do the risks of falls. Falls can lead to serious injuries, loss of independence, and long recovery periods. Our PSW fall prevention services focus on reducing risks, enhancing mobility, and providing real-time safety monitoring to keep your loved one safe.

How We Help Prevent Falls

Our dedicated Personal Support Workers (PSWs) take a proactive approach to reduce fall risks and create a safer living environment for seniors.

🔹 Home Safety Assessments – Identifying and eliminating hazards such as loose rugs, poor lighting, and clutter.
🔹 Assistance with Mobility & Transfers – Helping clients move safely from bed to chair, bathroom to living area, or up and down stairs.
🔹 Proper Use of Walkers & Canes – Ensuring assistive devices are used correctly for maximum stability.
🔹 Supervised Daily Activities – Providing support with walking, standing, and exercising to build strength and confidence.
🔹 Medication & Vision Monitoring – Ensuring medications are taken correctly and vision care is maintained to reduce fall risks.
🔹 Emergency Response & Check-Ins – Regular monitoring to quickly respond to accidents or changes in condition.

Why Fall Prevention is Critical

“Falls are the #1 reason seniors lose their independence, leading to long-term disability and costly hospital stays.” – [World Health Organization]

Without proper fall prevention, seniors face increased risks of fractures, hospitalization, and reduced mobility. Our team helps clients stay active, independent, and safe while providing peace of mind for families.
