About Game of Falls
How did the idea of Game of Falls started
The GAME OF FALLS was created in order to provide an accessible and user-friendly approach to the problem of falling among older people in the United States. Over 14 million adults aged 65 and older in the United States report falling each year. About 37% of those who fall experience injuries requiring medical treatment or restricted activity. In 2021, 38,742 older adults aged 65 and older died from preventable falls. Nearly 2.9 million older adults were treated in emergency departments due to falls. Falls are a significant cause of hip fractures and hospitalizations in older adults.

Fall prevention is complex and can be challenging due to a number of factors, including:
- Medications: Many medications can cause side effects that increase the risk of falling, such as drowsiness, dizziness, and blurred vision. The more medications a person takes, the more likely they are to experience side effects.
- Balance problems: Balance problems are common in seniors and can increase the risk of falls.
- Vision and hearing: Vision and hearing can change gradually with age, and it’s important to have them checked regularly.
- Fear of falling: Fear of falling is an important factor to address when trying to prevent falls.
- Frailty and sarcopenia: Frailty and sarcopenia can increase the risk of falls, disability, and mortality. Malnutrition, particularly a lack of protein, can contribute to both conditions.
- Social and demographic factors: Social and demographic factors can also play a role in fall risk.
Other factors that can contribute to fall risk include: sensory and neuromuscular factors, psychological factors, and environmental factors. The GAME OF FALLS is designed to address these issues with a user-friendly series of exercises in order to reduce the chance of a fall regardless of the risk factor involved.
