The Falls Free CheckUp/Chequeo Contra Caídas, an innovative online tool—available in both English and Spanish—that helps older adults assess their risk of falling and offers them a wealth of bilingual resources to stay safe.
The self-directed survey asks older adults 12 questions about their potential falls risk, such as balance and strength, medications, worry about falls, and past history of falls. A score of four or more indicates a risk for falls. After completing the screening, older adults receive their results by email, along with specific steps and resources to reduce their risk and advice on following up with their health care provider.
