Скачать или смотреть Top 10 Fall Prevention Tips Every Senior and Caregiver Must Know: Behavioral Gerontology Made Simple

Falls don’t happen randomly—they follow patterns. Hesitations at rugs, gripping doorframes, or slowing down before stepping into the shower are small clues that independence is quietly at risk. For aging adults, especially those with cognitive or physical changes, these moments aren’t “being careful.” They’re signals that the body and brain are struggling with balance, sequencing, or environmental demands.

In this session, we break down the Top 10 Fall Prevention Strategies through the lens of behavioral gerontology—making safety clear, actionable, and compassionate.

You’ll learn:

How to remove “trip triggers” by modifying routines, not just objects

Why improving lighting often matters more than improving strength

How predictable cues and prompt delay reduce rushed, unsafe transitions

The power of reinforcing slow, steady movements instead of speed

How to simplify environments with stability spots and adaptive furniture

Why balance routines can be built into everyday habits without workouts

Practical caregiver Q&A: walkers, nighttime wandering, bathroom hazards, and resistance to help

Grounded in behavioral science and aging research, this episode reframes fall prevention as a behavioral challenge—not just a medical one. By adjusting environments, routines, and reinforcement patterns, caregivers can reduce risk, preserve independence, and restore confidence in daily movement.
