This review is from: How To Stay Safe and Independent in Your Home: Fall Prevention for Seniors (DVD)

Started out good, but did not go through all the rooms. Focused on durable medical equipement use which was OK, but could have used more emphasis on what seniors can do to promote safety in mobility around their homes in all rooms. What about stairs? Music was irritating. Pace too slow. Not worth $20.

This review is from: How To Stay Safe and Independent in Your Home: Fall Prevention For Seniors [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I have been concerned about my elderly relatives. This video gave me concrete specific things that I could do to keep them safe, allowing them to stay in their own home rather than moving to a nursing home. I only wish we could have had this video when my parents were living. As an ophthalmologist with a large number of seniors in my practice, I plan on recommending this video to those who may need it.

This review is from: How To Stay Safe and Independent in Your Home: Fall Prevention for Seniors (DVD)

I bought several DVD's for my clients. The information provided is extremely helpful especially for families and caregivers of seniors. The video/DVD is presented very well and addresses so many things that family members and caregivers are not informed about when it comes to providing a safe environment. Nursing homes and long term care facilities would definitely benefit by utilizing this video/DVD for inservices in their facilities. Fall prevention is so vital when caring for seniors. There are too many that die as a result of a preventable fall. The video/DVD is in demand since there is not much information available to educate those caring for seniors. It is definitely worth the $20 to help prevent so many unnecessary falls.
