Your Home Fall Prevention Headquarters

We understand the challenges that come with aging and maximizing safety is the key to a longer quality of life. The living environment becomes riskier as we grow older so we must take steps to make to navigate common daily life transfers safer: Bedroom to bath at night, sure footing in shower, etc. Falls are a leading cause of injury and death among those aged 65 and over. With simple and easy actions, we can eliminate many common high-risk fall situations where they happen the most — where you live.

NFPC is dedicated to being the one-stop resource for the latest insights, research, tips, and solutions in older adult fall prevention. We support individuals, families, caregivers, insurance companies, and senior living communities in their efforts to protect and care for our older population. We are committed to providing in-depth analysis and understanding of these risks, translating statistics into actionable knowledge. We do this in three ways: Prevention, Education, and Empowerment!

Fall Prevention Playbook

Falls among the elderly represent a significant challenge to their independence and quality of life. Our Playbook seeks to be a comprehensive guide for caregivers, offering practical advice and solutions.

Topics include:

  • Home Safety Analysis
  • Lifestyle Modifications
  • Effective Communication
  • Caregiver Support
  • Complete Resource Guide
  • Checklists for Home, Physical Activity and Conversations

Home Fall Prevention Assessment

Our free Home Fall Prevention Assessment will help analyze and suggest recommendations you can use as a guide to reduce falls, along with helpful tools to discuss with your healthcare professional. Take the assessment for yourself, a family member, friend, or professional caregiver.

Home Modification and Fall Prevention Kit

Staying on Your Feet at Home

As we age, what was once easy to navigate and move around becomes more and more difficult. Typically, this occurs over time, until an actual or near fall occurs and we feel this new reality… I’ve aged. Falls in the home are the #1 cause of injury, going to the hospital, and even death for those aged 65 and over. Yet, there’s room for optimism as most falls can be prevented.

We provide families with a Kit of solutions that are quick and easy to place throughout the home to address the most high-risk areas where the most common falls occur. The kit requires no tools no skill and can be complete in about two hours.  

Our aging parents deserve a safe home to live their golden years to the fullest.  We can help you make that a reality.    

“Every day home is a blessing and reminder of
precious memories of joy, laughter, and warmth.”

Proudly Helping Seniors Stay on Their Feet and in their Homes Longer!
