Bath Specialist Falls Response Team 'An elderly person (aged 80+) falls every ten seconds in the UK, according to analysis by TakingCare Personal Alarms. This means around six elderly people fall every minute in the UK, equating to around 8,500 falls a day.' A shocking statistic. We need to do more @nfcc.
The time we have been dreading has arrived, booking off for the final time 🥲Thank you so much to everyone who has supported the service over the past 6 years it has been amazing 👍John Martin
