Gaia Cares Volunteers: Summer, Yvonne, Cheryl and Steven worked together with a eco-friendly info board which helps promote the awareness of fall among seniors. On 9 Sept, they meet the public at Brighouse Skytrain station, play games and award the participating seniors. Hope the message spread across Canada and seniors can have a good quality life. Pls join the fall prevention awareness day at 9/16 at Richmond Brighouse!
In response to the fall risks among seniors in Richmond, Gaia Cares held a Fall Prevention Awareness Day on 9/16 (Sat) 10-12:00 at Henry Yao MLA Constituency Office. Volunteers and staff of Gaia Cares will conduct a free Fall Assessment test which lasts about 5-8 mins for participants over 55 yrs old. The scores will serve as a hint for participants how to prepare his/her plan avoiding fall in future. There are also Fall Prevention Games and Videos booths promoting the public awareness about fall.
A Gift will be given to participants who join the assessment.
According to the Public Health Agency of Canada, 20 to 30 per cent of Canadian seniors suffer falls each year, and falls are the leading cause of hospitalisation for adults over age 65. Most Falls are predictable and preventable.
