          Everyone falls from time to time, but as you grow older
       the consequences of those spills can be more serious. But
       fear of falling is no reason to sit on the sidelines. With a
       little care and foresight on your part, you can continue to
       enjoy an active life while remaining firmly on your feet.

       you feel drowsy or lightheaded.
          • Have your vision checked by an eye doctor. Your
       eyes may have changed since you bought your last pair
       of glasses or you may have developed a condition like
       glaucoma or cataracts that limits your vision.
          • Get up slowly after you sit or lie down. Standing
       up suddenly can make anyone dizzy.
          • Wear sturdy shoes. The ideal pair has thin, nonslip
       soles. Avoid slippers and running shoes with thick soles
       that can make you unsteady on your feet.
          • Use a walking aid if necessary. If you need extra
       support to stay on your feet, by all means use a cane or
       walker. Others will appreciate your determination to be
       mobile.
          We invite you to take action on just these six points.
       By doing so, you can significantly add to your safety,
       your independence, and your peace of mind.
