FALL PREVENTION SYSTEM
Safe Step Systems helps identify safety concerns that most people may not recognize and our solutions can benefit older adults as well as anyone with orthopedic or impairing medical conditions.
We have developed a comprehensive systems approach to prevent falls and the subsequent outcomes of injury, decreased mobility and additional medical costs.
Our Solution
The Approach:
-
1
Initial Assessment
Our physician and OT/PT team will evaluate and assess the client's overall medical and orthopedic function and their living environment. We look for fall hazards and other risks that may contribute to falls. -
2
Create an Individualized Safe Step Plan
Our physician-directed team communicates with the client, family members, personal physicians and care coordinators about our detailed assessment and professional recommendations. The team functions as an advocate for the client’s wellbeing.
-
3
Implementation & Coordination
We will then coordinate the approved home improvements and/or programs that will improve the client's safety and reduce their fall risk. Improvements and installations can be completed by one of our trusted contractors or a contractor of your choosing. -
