Why it’s important:

🔹 Through the first nine months of 2025, Newport Community Hospital recorded 63 injuries from falls.

🔹 Most of these (36) happened to people age 65 and older.

🔹 Falls are the No. 1 reported mechanism of injury at our Emergency Department, ahead of vehicle accidents and motorcycle accidents.

You can take simple steps to prevent falls, helping you remain active and independent.

Take steps toward a healthy and independent life at this workshop, presented in collaboration with Aging & Long Term Care of Eastern WA.
