Falls at home: preventing risks for better protection
In France, approximately one in three people over the age of 65 and one in two people over the age of 80 fall each year. Prevention therefore remains an essential lever for preserving people's independence and safety on a daily basis.
Falls are one of the main causes of alerts in telecare. They can occur at any time, day or night, and have a significant impact on health and independence.
The first step is to maintain a healthy lifestyle. A good diet and daily exercise help to prevent falls. The layout of the home can also be a factor in falls. We recommend keeping passageways clear and adapting furniture.
In addition to these best practices, installing a telecare system is an effective way to improve safety at home. In the event of a fall, the alert ensures rapid response, with emergency services called at any time of the day or night. Our Sérélia telecare solution puts people at the heart of its systems to provide peace of mind and a friendly service 24h/24 7j/7.
