Central Vermont Home Health and Hospice will present a Falls Prevention class on September 17th from 2:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. in the Mayo Healthcare library at 610 Water Street, Northfield.

Falls account for a staggering number of hospitalizations and emergency room visits each year. While falls are the leading cause of injury for people 65 years of age and older, falls are NOT an inevitable part of aging. Take control of your health. Join us for this valuable class. You will learn ways to minimize your fall risk and receive an individual fall assessment.

This class is FREE and open to the public. Space is limited so please rsvp to Kathi Tynan at 485-3161 or Ktynan@mayohc.org.
