Thursday Thoughts: Identifying Fall Risks with the STEADI Test & Taking Action for Home Safety
Falls are a serious concern for seniors, but they don’t have to be an inevitable part of aging. This week's "Thursday Thoughts" covers the critical importance of conducting a comprehensive fall risk assessment like the STEADI test and, most importantly, taking the next step to ACT on the findings.
When seniors trigger a risk on the STEADI test, it’s a call for intervention. As healthcare providers, it’s our responsibility to ensure that these individuals are referred for professional home safety assessments. Simple modifications-grab bars, non-slip flooring, and adequate lighting-can make a world of difference in preventing falls and promoting independence.
This episode emphasizes the importance of proactive fall prevention strategies and how providers can champion the cause. If you’re committed to helping seniors age safely at home, this conversation is for you!
Watch now and join us in making homes safer for our seniors.
