❄️ Slip & Fall Prevention This Winter ❄️
Icy sidewalks, snowy parking lots, and wet entryways can quickly turn into a dangerous fall. As temperatures drop, slips and falls become one of the most common winter injuries—especially for older adults.
Stay safe this winter by:
👟 Wearing shoes or boots with good traction
🧂 Watching for ice on steps, sidewalks, and parking lots
🚶 Taking short, slow steps and keeping your hands free
💡 Using handrails and keeping walkways well lit
🧤 Avoiding rushing—extra layers can affect balance
If you do take a fall or experience pain, swelling, dizziness, or difficulty moving, don’t brush it off. Getting checked early can help prevent more serious injuries.
