Partnership project shows the importance of good data collection in predicting and preventing falls

For most of us if we’re healthy, falling over can lead to a skint knee, and if it happens in public, maybe a bit of embarrassment.

However, for some people, the lasting effects can be much more serious, leading to hospitalisation and often the beginning of a cycle of poor health or even a loss of their independence at home. Injuries caused by falls are a leading cause of hospital admission and death for those aged over 75. On average, there are over 4,000 hospital admissions in Glasgow each year due to a fall.
