Fall prevention
Technology can help to keep people safe and independent. Devices such as wearable fall detectors and bed/chair occupancy sensors can ensure help is on hand quickly after a fall, which can mitigate its effects. Medication dispensers and prompts can reduce falls due to medication mismanagement, and lifestyle monitoring can identify behaviours which may indicate the likelihood of a fall, enabling intervention.
