West Kent Health & Wellbeing Board Meeting 18 April 2017
Workshop: Towards a Whole Systems Approach to Falls Prevention
From Current State to Ideal Status
Hip Fractures in people aged 65 and over are higher than national rates in districts in West Kent. Injuries due to falls in people aged 65 and over in all four districts is higher than the national level.
Falls prevention and management services should be seen as an important
component of integrated services with specific outcomes for reducing the falls
related burden of ill health across health and social care sector. Commissioners need to work with stakeholders (providers and the voluntary sector) to identify the ‘at risk’ population for timely intervention).
The CCG has a role in managing falls; District and Borough councils have a role in managing the environment to reduce falls and home hazards, whilst the Public Health role is to strengthen the system (which includes mobilising the population group and others such as the community and voluntary sector). West Kent Health & Wellbeing Board is seeking to stimulate discussion around developing a ‘framework’ for falls prevention and management for its population.
