Health Care Organizations and the Provision of Services

The use of health care organizations that are dedicated to the provision of services related to Assisted Living Care, Alzheimer’s or Dementia Care, as well as Long-Term Care is increasing as vast numbers of people in America age. How do these organizations plan to provide care for these people? Do they have their organizations focused on the provision of services, or are they more focused on statistics?

Falls and Fractures - Safety Information

A simple thing can change your life—like tripping on a rug or slipping on a wet spot on the kitchen floor. If you fall, then you might be like the thousands of older men and women each year who break, or fracture, a bone. A broken bone might not sound awful.

Head Injuries, Basic Information

Serious head injuries are most likely to occur to a person who is in a car accident and is not wearing a seat belt. Other main causes of head injuries include motorcycle or bicycle accidents, falls around a person's home, largely among young children or seniors, or falls from windows – particularly among children who live in the city. Head injuries may be serious, involving bleeding and tearing of tissues. Brain swelling can occur when the person's brain moves inside of their skull at the time of impact.
