SUMMARY:Preventing Falls and Building Communities: A Local Government Approach | Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Local governments play a significant role in developing\, coordinating and delivering injury prevention\, safety policies and programs in their local area. Local governments’ responsibility for health can include encouraging: health promotion behaviours\, opportunities for social connection and recreational participation to increase and maintain physical and mental wellbeing. \nFalls are a significant public health issue in Western Australia. 1 in 3 people over the age of 65 fall each year. Falls can have a real impact on an individual’s life that can lead to a loss of independence and confidence\, increased concerns of falling and difficulty doing daily tasks. \nFalls are preventable\, and there are many strategies that local governments can implement to prevent falls in older adult community members. \nJoin Injury Matters on Tuesday\, 24 June 10:00 am (AWST) for the “Preventing Falls and Building Communities: A Local Government Approach” webinar\, where we will explore: \n\nWhat role local governments have in falls prevention.\nCase studies of falls prevention programs that local governments have implemented in their community.\nAdvice and insights for other local governments looking to plan and deliver their own falls prevention program.\nHow local governments can align falls prevention programs to their Public Health Plans.\n\nWho should attend? \nLocal Government workers\, Health Promotion Officers\, Community Development Officers\, and Regional and Metropolitan Health Services. \nCost: FREE
