Fall Prevention Program in Barrington, IL

Falls are the main reason seniors lose their independence. Every year, over 800,000 people are hospitalized due to a serious injury from falling with hip fractures as the most common type. While only 25% of people are able to make a full recovery, 40% are never able to return home. Once someone suffers an injury from a fall, the impact can affect them emotionally and socially. To prevent all this from happening, Visiting Angels provides a fall prevention program in Barrington, IL.
