#fallprevention can be measured in real-time. Can you drive outcomes without knowing your patient’s risk? #primarycare

The award-winning Stability scale shows that your balance and fall risk can change quickly, for good, and for bad.

@bfrist Fantastic article, Bill! You reached details of the problem that few get to. Would love to chat. Our data further extends insights. Eg our tech can predict if you will fall in the next 12 months & gives 30+yr risk trajectories. It won runner up NASA invention of the year 2023.

#Falling incidents are an #epidemic that few – even among those in the #healthcare sector – are paying attention to. If you or your parents are over 55, you are going to fall. It happened to me. It happened to my wife, Tracy. Here's what you must know:

@lexigarrity10 @ultimate_shame Oh dear. Take care!

[Katey Forth, PhD @kt4th]

@chrissyfarr Yep, and fall incidences have grown annually for the last decade. I agree with @alikhan28, the measures need to be right to drive meaningful change.

Ageism as a barrier to eliciting what matters: A call for multigenerational action to confront the invisible “-ism”. #geriatrics https://t.co/8r7MQ9c2uM

[Katey Forth, PhD @kt4th]

@AGSJournal Well done! And in fall prevention care we believe it is greater than 7% as most providers don’t use an objective assessment of fall risk the ageism can flourish. We wrote about it here: https://t.co/FCYrMBN7Dr

2/ After 10 years, we know what works in value-based care- allowing primary care to take accountability for the TOTAL cost and quality of care.

The largest and most successful model is the MSSP- which is achieving the promise of better care at lower cost

"It is never too late to start appropriate exercise. This study offers hope and strong evidence that people can achieve higher levels of resilience than previously thought possible."

Why are strength and good balance so important for #OlderAdults? Because these things are critical to preventing falls.

Do you know who will fall down this year? It’s the little old lady, right?

Read how #ageism is preventing seniors from getting effective fall prevention care.
