Agree. Falls are the consequence of multi-factorial items. Find-out what the primary cause of the fall. #csepgoldchat

walk them if they can be mobilized. 2-3 short walks per day can do a lot to reduce physical loss #csepgoldchat

[Gareth Jones @gjonesubc]

Get them exercising in bed if they have mobility restrictions. Portable arm ergs. are good #csepgoldchat

[Gareth Jones @gjonesubc]

[Gareth Jones @gjonesubc]

[Gareth Jones @gjonesubc]

[Gareth Jones @gjonesubc]

[Gareth Jones @gjonesubc]

Yes it is; but make-sure that the older adult you are testing will not have ceiling or basement results from these tests #CSEPGoldChat
