Falls Prevention Awareness Week Falls are a leading cause of fatal injuries in older adults, often resulting in severe outcomes such as fractures, head trauma, and even death. The risk of falling increases with age due to factors such as decreased muscle strength, impaired balance, and various medical conditions. In addition to causing physical harm, falls can also lead to a loss of independence and a decline in quality of life. Whether you are at home or somewhere else, a sudden fall can be startling and upsetting. If you do fall, stay as calm as possible and take the necessary steps for safety! #FallPrevention #Health #Safety #Wellness

#Lead poisoning can show up in many ways, especially in children. You might notice signs like developmental #delays, #irritability, #fatigue, and even a drop in appetite or weight. In more serious cases, children could experience vomiting, hearing loss, or #seizures. Adults aren’t immune either; they may struggle with high blood pressure (#hbp), joint pain, #headaches, and memory #issues, along with mood swings and trouble concentrating. It’s important to recognize these symptoms early, as both kids and adults can face significant long-term health effects if lead exposure isn’t addressed. https://lnkd.in/ee5krJjt Discover how we're making a positive impact on the environment and public health – explore our services at www.leadlab.com, call us at 1-800-347-4010, or send us an inquiry to sales@leadlab.com #LeadPoisonPrevention
