Preventing Falls as you Age
Overview
Join Safia Noor from the Alberta International Medical Graduates Association (AIMGA) for an informative and practical session focused on understanding and reducing fall risks as we age. This presentation will explore the most common causes of falls, how aging affects balance and mobility, and the steps you can take to stay safe and independent. Safia will guide participants through simple lifestyle changes, home safety strategies, and exercises that support strength, stability, and confidence.
Whether you are a senior, a caregiver, or someone supporting older adults, this session provides valuable tools to help prevent falls and promote healthy aging.
