Staying active is key to preventing falls
April is Falls Month, and a local hospital has a focus on healthy ageing to help prevent falls.
'Brisbane Waters Private Hospital is encouraging our community and patients to keep active and stay connected to prevent falls among our nearest and dearest," said chief executive Ms Deb Ritter.
"According to the NSW Fall Prevention and Healthy Ageing Network, staying physically active is the single most important thing we can do to stay healthy as we age as it can help to improve balance and increase strength."
