Home Care Services in Alta Loma

If you’re concerned about the possibility of an aging loved one sustaining an injury due to falling, your fears are not unfounded. The truth is falling is the leading cause of fatal and non-fatal injury for seniors. Thankfully, by taking steps to mitigate fall risk, many of those accidents can be preventable. Home care services from a trusted Alta Loma area provider like Visiting Angels^® Upland can be one of the most valuable decisions you’ll make regarding your loved one’s safety.

Here are three of most important things you can do to prevent falls:

1. Medical fall risk evaluation. Have your loved one’s physician conduct a medical evaluation of their fall risk and then follow up with any specialists recommended, such as vision, hearing, or podiatry. Make sure you tell your doctor if there has already been a fall.
2. Maintain muscle strength. Even simple exercises can help maintain strength in arms, hands, legs, and feet. Muscle strength plays a big role in fall prevention.
3. Consider home care. Beside taking over tasks that require standing, stretching, reaching, and squeezing in and out of tight spaces, at Visiting Angels Upland, we provide a comprehensive, no-cost, fall-risk assessment to every client who schedules a free consultation for home care services in Alta Loma.
