SUMMARY:Mobility in Falls Prevention Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Mobility is crucial for healthy ageing and falls prevention\, allowing older adults to maintain their independence\, participate in physical activities\, engage in social and community life\, and access necessary health and community resources. \nFunctional mobility is multi-factorial and influenced by body function and structure\, personal circumstances and environmental factors. When mobility is limited\, the risk of falls\, hospitalisation and reduced quality of life increases. Approximately 35% of people aged 70\, and most people over the age of 85\, experience mobility limitations. \nThe updated Guidelines on Preventing falls and harm from falls in Older People (Community Care Guidelines) recommend that older adults undertake 2-3 hours of exercise per week\, targeting balance\, mobility and strength training. \nJoin Injury Matters for the “Mobility in Falls Prevention” webinar on Wednesday\, 5 November at 10:00 am – 11:00 am (AWST)\, where we will explore: \n\nWhat is functional mobility?\nFactors that influence functional mobility\nHow mobility challenges can influence falls risk\nHow to assess functional mobility\nExercises and programs to improve mobility and reduce falls in older adults in the community\nA life course approach to falls prevention\n\nThis webinar is suitable for: \nAny health professionals working with older adults\, including Physiotherapists\, Occupational Therapists\, Exercise Physiologists\, Podiatrists\, Allied Health Assistants\, Support Workers\, Aged Care Workers and GPs. \nRegister here \n \n\nReijnierse\, E.

SUMMARY:Creating Safer Communities: A Healthy Streets Approach to Preventing Injury
DESCRIPTION:Healthy Streets is an evidence-based approach to designing and managing streets that support health\, sustainability\, fairness and community well-being. This approach focuses on the continuous improvement of existing conditions to enhance everyday life for all community members. \nIn Western Australia\, local governments are required to develop Public Health Plans. These plans should consider how the built environment and local infrastructure influence community health outcomes\, including the prevention of injuries\, chronic disease and environmental health risks. Built environment and transport are two priority areas that local governments should consider when creating their public health plan to prevent injury. \nJoin Injury Matters\, with guest presenter Lucy Saunders from Healthy Streets\, for the “Creating Safer Communities: A Healthy Streets Approach to Preventing Injury” interactive workshop on Thursday\, 28 August 9:00 am – 12:00 pm\, where we will: \n\nGo through an introduction to the Healthy Streets Approach\nAssess the safety of nearby streets (subjectively and objectively)\nExplore Healthy Streets assessments and tools\nDiscuss how different groups are impacted by street features\nIdentify actions and next steps to make your street safer\n\nThere will also be the opportunity for Lucy to answer questions about Healthy Streets and how you can implement this Approach. \nOptional \nYou can send through photos and a case study of a street in your community\, and Lucy may provide feedback and advice. \nPlease include: \n\nStreet name\nPhoto of the street\nWhy you have chosen that street to be reviewed?\n\nPlease send your case study to: info@knowinjury.org.au \nWho should attend? \nLocal Government officers\, Community Safety officers\, Health Promotion officers\, Community Development officers\, Engineers\, Environmental Planners\, State Government stakeholders and Urban Planners. \nCost: $25 (including GST) \nRegister here:
