Senior Fall Prevention

Conscious of the difficulties of people of all ages, Soroptimist International of Brea/La Habra sponsors a Senior Fall Prevention class that focuses on seniors and the daily threat of falling. This class offers information on being aware of what hazards contribute to falling and what to do in the event of falling. Planning for, and being able to access an emergency kit after a fall, are critical to the safety and well-being of seniors.
