Alzheimer's and Dementia affects millions of people worldwide. As individuals age and face cognitive challenges, they become more vulnerable to various health risks, one of the most concerning being falls.
September is Falls Prevention Awareness Month, so it's a reminder to us all about the importance of looking out for our older loved ones and those who may face mobility challenges.
