SUMMARY:Understanding family carers falls concern and their management of older adults falls risks at home Webinar
DESCRIPTION:With Western Australia’s ageing population\, family carers are increasingly becoming essential support in falls prevention and care delivery for older adults living in the community. Carers’ concerns for older adults’ falls risk\, can have a severe impact on the psychological well-being and ability of family carers to prevent falls. Falls prevention programs that include family carers contribute to significant improvement in falls risk awareness and knowledge in carers and their care recipients. However\, maladaptive caring strategies adopted by carers could lead to dependence and increasing risk of falling among older adults at home. \nJoin Injury Matters for the ‘Understanding family carers fall concern and their management of older adults fall risks at home webinar’. A presentation will be provided by Marcus Ang\, Edith Cowan University who will discuss issues that contribute to concerns of family carers regarding risk of falling and the strategies they use to prevent older adults from falling at home.

SUMMARY:Scooter-related Injuries Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Transport injuries are a leading cause of hospitalisations and fatalities in Western Australia. The variety in our transport routes\, demographics and preference for physical activity results in the use of differing transportation devices. \nJoin Injury Matters and the Australasian Injury Prevention Network for the ‘Scooter Safety Webinar’. This webinar will focus on some of these high-risk transportation devices by exploring the incidence of injury due to e-scooter and mobility scooter use. Special guests and experts in the space\, Professor Joan Ozanne-Smith and Professor Kristen Vallmuur will join us to share their expertise. \nProfessor Joan Ozanne-Smith heads the Injury Prevention Research Unit at Monash University’s Department of Forensic Medicine. Joan has worked to reduce the incidence of mobility scooter-related injuries\, with special interest in policy to improve mobility scooter safety. \nProfessor Kirsten Vallmuur is the Chair of Trauma Surveillance and Data Analytics in the School of Public Health and Social Work at the Queensland University of Technology. Kirsten has conducted extensive research into the safety of e-scooters as they emerge as a common means of transportation. \nThis webinar will provide participants with knowledge of: \n\nThe incidence of injury due to e-scooters.\nThe incidence of injury due to mobility scooters.\nThe key risk factors associated with using scooters.\nKey prevention initiatives required to reduce the incidence of injury among scooter users.\n\nThis webinar is delivered by Injury Matters via the Know Injury program. Know Injury\, funded through the WA Department of Health\, is a state-wide program aimed at preventing injury in WA.
