UK HealthCare, Lexington Senior Center lead community effort on fall prevention awareness

UK Now

For adults age 65 and older, falling can be frightening and a serious health matter — not only for the physical repercussions of falling, but the emotional trauma which often occurs afterwards. Dr. Greg talks with Amie Peel, a registered nurse and UK Trauma’s outreach and education coordinator, about a new Falls Prevention collaboration with the Lexington Senior Center.
