Fall Prevention Consultant

My name is Kelly Ward and I am the Fall Prevention Lady.  I have been studying falls and the prevention thereof since 2006.  I am passionate about sharing my knowledge with older adults, their loved ones and the people who care for them in order to prevent accidental slips and trips. 

While there are multiple causes for falls, there is usually an underlying impairment that contributes to loss of balance.  Fall prevention researchers have identified common causes of falls, some can be modified and others must be managed.  In my book, The Complete Guide to Fall Prevention™, I discuss these factors and provide practical tips to remedy these situations.  My book is easy to understand manner and is also entertaining.    A definite MUST READ!

I am a "fall prevention consultant" because I am able to recognize situations that contribute to falls and can provide examples of how to minimize those risks.  As a balance and mobility specialist, I am able to progressively train the body's balance systems on an INDIVIDUALIZED level to fits each person's unique needs.

My combination of experience, training and passion make me an invaluable member in the planning and implementation of fall prevention programs.  Whether I am training older adults or assessing an assisted living environment, I am able to identify high fall risk situations and offer practical, affordable solutions.  Having worked with the best of the best in fall prevention, if I don't know how to solve a problem, I have an amazing network of professionals with whom to consult.

If you want to make your environment safer and reduce the risk of future falls, I invite you to contact me.  Although I am located in Sacramento, California, I can travel to you.  I am a professional and guarantee your satisfaction with my services.
