ABSTRACT
Older people frequently fall. This is a serious public health problem, with a substantial impact on health and healthcare costs.1
These guidelines translate trial evidence about prevention of falls
into recommendations that can be implemented in different settings, with
the aim of reducing the rate of falls and injurious falls in people
over 65 (see boxes 2 3).
Summary points
Multifaceted interventions reduce falls in older people (those over 65)
Home assessment of older people at risk of falls without referral or direct intervention is not recommended
Assessment of high risk residents in nursing homes with relevant referral is effective
Evidence from well designed single trials shows that
assessment and modification of risk factors of older people who have
presented to an accident and emergency department after a fall and the
provision of hip protectors in residents of nursing homes are effective
