September is Fall Prevention Awareness Month!
According to the World Health Organization, 28-35% of people over the age of 65 fall each year. Falling is a serious concern, as it has the potential to lead to significant health problems for older adults. Living with vision loss can put a person at higher risk for falls. Preventing falls will decrease health risks and increase an individual’s long term quality of life. Here at SightConnection, we provide you with items that help you (or a loved one) to prevent avoidable falls and to stay as independent as possible. For more information on fall prevention, see the September issue of our online Prism newsletter. Click here to learn more. Please feel free to give us a call at 1-800-458-4888 with any questions about our products you may have, or if you would like to place an order over the phone.
Your purchases make a difference! All of your purchases help support our nonprofit's mission of enhancing the ability of people with vision loss to lead active, independent lives.
