Senior care insights straight to your inbox.

As we continue to talk about the population of seniors over the age of 65 doubling by 2030 and the current statistics of hospitalizations related to falls being 27,000 deaths and 800,000 hospitalizations, families and healthcare professionals continue to search for better solutions for aging safely.

Seniors and senior caregivers are asking questions such as:

• “How can we prevent falls and also know what could be a trigger?”
• “How can I access healthcare and decrease cost, time and germ exposure?”

Have you ever thought there HAS to be a better way in caring for an aging loved one?

Dr. Dev Brar has spent more than 25 years in the home healthcare industry focusing efforts on senior caregiving. His one goal has been to promote healthier and independent lifestyles for seniors.

The occurrence of an ever-changing elderly population and covid seems to have highlighted some challenges in our systems and opened our minds to acceptance of innovation. These days there are more people using in-home services for food delivery, communication, and virtual healthcare consultations. Thanks to technology, we have access to such things as telehealth, remote monitoring, and artificially intelligent medical devices. We are living in a virtual world where homebound persons can interact in vital circumstances and maintain quality of life and independence.

Are you constantly evaluating your fall protection plan and looking for ways to streamline and modernize? The time is now as the population of Americans aged 65 and older will double come 2030. In senior care, fall prevention is equal to prevention of injury. People are living longer, the over 65 community is growing rapidly due to the aging baby boomer population and falls will continue to increase unless we make a commitment to providing effective fall prevention programs.
