The Falls Specialist Service commenced in 2001 at Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital (external site) to assist older adults living in the community to identify and reduce their risk of falls. The service has been expanded across the Perth metropolitan area through funding made available by the State and Australian Governments.
The service targets older adults over 65 who are at risk of a fall, or have already experienced a fall and would benefit from a detailed assessment of their risk of falling.
