Stanford Health Care Webinar on Fall Prevention, Scheduled for September 22

September 8, 2021 By Parkinson's Community Help

On the first day of fall, we always see “fall prevention awareness” events.  This year is no different.  On September 22, 2021, 4pm, join Stanford’s Farewell to Falls team for a 90-minute webinar on aging-in-place safely through home safety checks and assistive devices.  Register today. 

Aging-in-Place Safely Webinar

Date:  Wednesday, September 22, 2021

Time:  4-5:30pm PT

Register here or by phone 650-724-9369 (Stanford Health Care’s Injury Prevention Team)

Speakers and topics include:

  • Martin Simenc, Home Safety Services.  He will review some of the most common assistive aids and devices used for home modifications.
  • Occupational therapists, Stanford Health Care’s Injury Prevention Team.  They will walk through real spaces and discuss home safety checks you can make in your own home.
  • Gina Cali, senior community risk officer, Santa Clara County Fire.  She will inform us what role the Fire Department has in fall prevention and home safety.

If you have questions for the speakers, you can add them to your online registration form.  Or, you can email Stanford Health Care in advance.

This webinar is open to older adults, family members, caregivers, and healthcare professionals.
