Source text - English FALLS PREVENTION FOR SENIORS
For people over 65, falls are the leading injury-related causes of death. More Floridians 65 years of age and older die from falls than any other injury-related cause, according to the Florida Department of Health, Emergency Medical Services Office. In fact, Florida has had the second highest incidence of death related to geriatric falls in the nation.
“When an elderly person is injured by a fall there is a high likelihood that they will never regain their full mobility or independence,” stated Alan Levine, Secretary of the Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA), “By providing fall prevention services our goal is to prolong independence and quality of life for our many elderly residents.”
Many falls are preventable. Throw rugs, clutter, objects in pathways and pets are all common contributors to falls.
Translation - Spanish PREVENCIÓN DE CAÍDAS EN PERSONAS MAYORES
En las personas mayores de 65 años, una de las principales causas de muerte son las heridas relacionadas con caídas. De acuerdo con el Departamento de Salud de Florida, Oficina de Servicios de Emergencia Médica, más habitantes de Florida de 65 años o más mueren por caídas que por cualquier otra causa relacionada con heridas. De hecho, Florida ha tenido el segundo nivel de incidencia más alto de muertes relacionadas con caídas geriátricas del país.
“Cuando una persona mayor resulta herida por una caída, hay una alta probabilidad de que esa persona nunca vuelva a recuperar su plena movilidad o independencia” dijo Alan Levine, Secretario de la Agencia para la Administración de la Salud (AHCA), “Al brindar servicios de prevención de caídas, nuestro objetivo es prolongar la independencia y calidad de vida de muchos de nuestros residentes mayores”.
Muchas de las caídas pueden prevenirse. Las alfombras, el desorden, los objetos en el camino y las mascotas suelen contribuir a que se produzcan caídas.
