Aging Wisely: Fall Prevention
Presented by Falls Free and Pierce County Human Services
Aging Wisely: Fall Prevention is a special television program produced by the Pierce County Fall Prevention Coalition and sponsored by Pierce County Human Services about preventing falls in daily life. Hosted by former KING TV anchor Dennis Bounds, the program introduces us to doctors and safety experts who have important tips to share. Plus, see a few exercises that can be done standing or sitting at home, or with an exercise class. The good news - everyone is capable of preventing a fall.
