-
Maintain a nutritious diet.
To receive your daily dose of minerals like vitamin D, calcium, and protein, eat colorful vegetables and fruits, legumes, nuts and seeds, some poultry and fish, and dairy products (like yogurt or cottage cheese). If you have a loved one who is prone to falls as a result of poor nutrition, our meal preparations can help with meal prep and nutrition counseling.
-
Improve your balance.
Slow and purposeful workouts such as tai chi and yoga are excellent ways to enhance your balance. These exercises can help to strengthen muscles, reducing the chance of falling.
-
Perform body-weight workouts.
Lifting light weights or performing body-weight exercises like planks or modified push-ups will help you build stronger bones and muscles. Stretch both before and after your workout. If you or a loved one requires supervision during these exercises, we can connect you with a dependable caregiver from our team.

Reduce the risk of falling at home and at work.
Remove floor debris and throw rugs, ensure halls are well-lit, install grab bars and floor treads in slick restrooms, repair damaged steps and loose carpeting, and wear shoes with nonslip soles on hard floors.
