Abstract

 Falls are one of the major problems among the geriatric population and are a marker of poor physical and cognitive status. The current practice generally focuses on the injury rather than a complete assessment of underlying cause. If the risk factors are identified early and screening is done to high risk elderly then, majorities of the falls are potentially preventable.

Keywords: Elderly; Falls; Intrinsic Factors; Extrinsic Factors; Preventable; Environment.
