Falls Clinic
The falls clinic of Sint-Trudo Hospital focuses on patients with walking and/or balance disorders and recurrent falls. A multidisciplinary team of physiotherapists, occupational therapists, geriatricians and nurses will help you with a screening and give you tailored advice to avoid falls to the maximum.
About 30% of people over the age of 65 fall once a year. Due to the aging of the population, the number of fall incidents is increasing. Direct injuries from a fall include bone fractures, soft tissue injuries and cerebral disorders. In addition, there are the psychological consequences of a fall, where the fear of another fall can undermine self-reliance. Both aspects can jeopardize independent functioning in the home situation.
