๐ฃ 1 in 3 people aged 65 and over have at least one fall each year (Clinical Excellence Commission, 2023).
As we age, changes in strength, balance, and the home environment can increase the risk of falls, but with the right support, many falls can be prevented.
This Fatherโs Day, weโre celebrating dads by helping them stay safe, steady, and confident in their daily lives.
Our Occupational Therapists and Physiotherapists work together to reduce fall risks and support meaningful independence. Here's how we help:
๐ ๏ธ OT:

โขโ Strategies for memory, attention, and safe habits
๐ช Physio:
โขโ Strength and balance programs
โขโ Gait retraining and mobility support
โขโ Post-operative and rehabilitation support

Whether itโs walking to the cafรฉ, gardening, or getting out to see the grandkids, weโre here to help dads keep doing the things they love, safely.
