About this service
About Falls Prevention
A falls review considers previous falls, balance, mobility and other factors that may increase your risk. Your doctor may review medicines, blood pressure, vision and hearing as part of the assessment.
The next steps depend on the findings and may include investigations or allied health support. Bring your walking aid if you use one and tell the doctor about any recent falls or near falls.
Appointment information
Please bring your walking aid and current medication list if applicable.
