A life jacket won’t prevent you from falling into the water. But it will help protect you from drowning.

Similarly, our SAF-T VEST won’t prevent older adults from falling. But it will help protect them from serious injury.

A Kaiser Family Foundation Health News report (https://t.co/5vjQkz7pJN) suggests that a historic number of Americans are living alone as they age. In Central Indiana, 123,051 older adults (age 55+), or 23% of older adult population, lived alone in 2022. https://t.co/iuUD5WM8zo)

Falls are a common but serious risk for seniors. Minneapolis startup Davenport Saf-T Systems wants to protect them with clothing that inflates like an automobile's airbag. https://t.co/p5q4RMXEuB

We concur with former U.S. Senate Majority Leader @bfrist--falls among older adults are a growing public health crisis. That's why @SafSystems is focused on fall injury protection. #SAFTVEST #walkwithconfidence #aging #wearabletech #startups #crowdfunding

#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:

"Here’s what they don’t tell you about falls: You keep falling again and again. You fall off curbs. You fall down the stairs. You fall in the shower."

The latest Adverse Health Events report for Minnesota hospitals shows 73 serious patient injuries and six deaths from falls. These numbers haven't changed much in 15 years.

So thankful for the support we've received in so many ways. The clock is winding down on our crowdfunding campaign. But, there's still time to invest in our solution to help keep seniors safe from fall injuries! More at https://t.co/0TJr446zWe

Even famous people fall and hurt themselves. In fact, it may not be possible to prevent falls. But we know how to protect people if they do. #findusonwefunder #aging #startup #crowdfunding
