Teaming up to Prevent Falls |
|
Partnership Health is actively involved in this area, funding the community-based 'Stay on Your Feet' falls-prevention programme in the greater Christchurch area.
This includes physiotherapists across Canterbury in the Otago Exercise Programme.
More recently we worked within the CCN to design new models for falls prevention, looking at what resourcing is needed and how programmes should be structured. It's another way we're partnering with groups across the health system to provide the right care for people in the community when they need it, as well as working towards national health targets.
