About the event

"Preventing Falls: Helping Older Adults Stay Safe" - ACAP Cobb & Cherokee
ACAP Cobb & Cherokee is hosting a free educational program titled "Preventing Falls: Helping Older Adults Stay Safe" on Thursday, July 17th at 6:30pm.

The program will be held at Covenant Presbyterian Church in Kapperman-Williams Hall, located at 2881 Canton Road in Marietta, Georgia.

As our parents age, they are more prone to falling for several reasons. Often, a fall results in a significant injury requiring immediate medical attention. All too frequently, falls have lasting effects, requiring long-term rehabilitation services and seriously affecting an older person’s mobility, activities of daily living, and independence. A fall may result in permanent health issues and balance, confidence, and independence changes.

The good news is that many falls are preventable. Making even slight changes to an older adult’s activities and routines and making changes in the home can reduce the risk of falling and help older loved ones remain safe and more independent for extended periods.

This program will help adult children understand movement and mobility challenges as loved ones age and offer specific and practical tips for preventing falls in the home and community.

Program Presenter: Nicole Wetherington, Certified Aging-in-Place Specialist and Mobility Consultant
