Falls Prevention Services from Spectrum Health.
Supporting Safer Living, One Step at a Time.
Our Falls Prevention Services allow our Nursing Home Partners to offer Falls Risk Screening to their residents.
Falls Risk Screening is the first step in preventing falls and focuses on assessing, prescribing and action. The service, using the latest wireless sensor technology, enables our Chartered Physiotherapists to deliver an accurate falls risk assessment
Did you know?
1 in 3 adults aged 80 and over experience a fall each year. The key causes of falls in residential care settings include:
- Reduced mobility & muscle weakness
- Polypharmacy & medication side effects
- Environmental hazards (poor lighting, cluttered walkways)
- Cognitive impairment (dementia, confusion)
How Our Falls Assessment Works
A simple walking exercise
To screen you, we will fit you with Kinesis QTUG sensors and take you through a simple walking exercise, taking no more than 15 minutes.
Falls Risk Calculated
We use the clinical assessment and QTUG sensor data to assess risk with a high degree of accuracy.
Advice to minimise risk
Depending on the results of the falls screen, we’ll explain what you need to do to minimise risk.
At Spectrum Health, our Falls Prevention service empowers nursing homes to proactively safeguard residents. Through advanced assessments and tailored interventions, we help reduce fall risks, enhance mobility, and promote independence—ultimately improving quality of life and reducing healthcare costs.
