Fall Prevention

Welcome to the Fall Prevention Program!

The Ventura County Area Agency on Aging and the Fall Prevention Coalition Partners are aware of the critical effects that falls have on the health of individuals and most especially seniors. That is why we have the Ventura County Fall Prevention Coalition Partners’ program. Below you will find a flyer giving you Fall Facts, Risk Factors and how to make your home safer. For more about preventative measures for falls please check out our videos below and contact us at (805) 477-7343 and ask for the Fall Prevention Coordinator or email us at Fall.Prevention.Program@ventura.org.

The Next Fall Prevention Forum will be held in September 2020. More to come.

IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR EVIDENCE-BASED FALL PREVENTION CLASSES:

In response to the COVID-19 outbreak and subsequent social distancing policies, the VCAAA Fall Prevention Program has postponed all Fall Prevention classes at all locations until further notice. This postponement is in support of the Ventura County Health Officer’s Stay Well at Home Order.

The intent of postponing all classes is to ensure the health and safety of our community as well as our class participants, volunteers, and employees. In the weeks and months ahead, we will be exploring ways that we can continue to support you. Please let us know what we can do to help. We are disappointed and sorry it has come to this, but want to thank you all for your understanding and all you do to help support the health of our community.
