WASC April 2025 - Fall Prevention and Risk Assessment
Fall Prevention and Risk Assessment
1 in 3 Ohioans over the age of 65, fall each year, making this the leading cause of injury in this age group. With the help of evidence-based programs, this risk can be decreased. The Falls Prevention Program of Holmes, Wayne & Ashland is working toward preventing falls by partnering with local agencies and community members to decrease fall-related injuries. On Wednesday, April 23 Kerry MacQueen with the Wayne County Health Department will discuss the steps that can be taken to prevent fall injuries.
This meeting will take place at the First Presbyterian Church in Wooster from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. The cost is $20 for Chamber members and $25 for non-members.
The Wooster Area Safety Council meets monthly to share knowledge on relevant topics, network with fellow industry professionals, assist organizations in creating safer workplaces, and provide companies with opportunities to earn a rebate on their workers' compensation premiums.
