Description:
Not Gonna Fall for You
How to Prevent Fall Risks and Age Well in the Home
The workshop will be presented by Holly Owens, a long-time ally of the LGBTQ Center who volunteered for many years at the Center. She is currently attending Durham Technical Community College for Occupational Therapy.
Not Gonna Fall for You: How to Prevent Fall Risks and Age Well in the Home is open to all and can be very helpful to caregivers and those with aging parents as well as any of us as we age. The program will help you identify your risk for falling as well as remedies to prevent falls in your home. We will also discuss what is means to age well in the home and how adaptive equipment can be used to make that easier.
Free parking on-street and in the parking garage around the corner from the Center is available on Saturdays.
