About This Event

<p>Falls are not a normal part of aging, yet half of all injury related deaths among Washington residents aged 65 and older are due to unintentional falls. Most of those are preventable trips, slips and stumbles in the home. This presentation is for aging adults and caregivers who want to focus on steps to reduce falls and stay healthy, strong, and independent.  <br><br>Presented by <a href="https://www.snohd.org/1870/Fall-Prevention-and-Education" target="_blank">Snohomish County Health Department</a>.<br><br><a href="https://www.sno-isle.org/contact-us/?_gl=1*z3xjv1*_ga*MTUyNjEzODY0OC4xNzg3MDg4OTUw*_ga_G99DMMNG39*czE3ODcwOTgyMjkkbzMkZzEkdDE3ODcwOTg0MTckajYwJGwwJGgw" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Contact us with questions</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.sno-isle.org/faq/programs-events/?_ga=2.117964937.1624198399.1690305271-856902110.1690305271&_gl=1*1ooagxo*_ga*ODU2OTAyMTEwLjE2OTAzMDUyNzE.*_ga_G99DMMNG39*MTY5MDMwNTI3MS4xLjEuMTY5MDMwNjk1Mi4wLjAuMA.." target="_blank">Programs & Events FAQs</a><br></p> <p>To <strong><a href="https://askus.sno-isle.org/widget_standalone.php?la_widget_id=15536" target="_blank">request a sign language interpreter</a></strong>, complete this <a href="https://askus.sno-isle.org/widget_standalone.php?la_widget_id=15536" target="_blank">online form</a> or <a href="https://sno-isle.bibliocommons.com/locations/?_ga=2.167347966.1741286699.1659972435-363119640.1615934079&ct=YTo1OntzOjY6InNvdXJjZSI7YToyOntpOjA7czo1OiJlbWFpbCI7aToxO2k6ODI7fXM6NToiZW1haWwiO2k6ODI7czo0OiJzdGF0IjtzOjIyOiI2MmYyYjM2ODUwZDU5Nzc3MzEyMTQ5IjtzOjQ6ImxlYWQiO3M6NjoiMzc4MDk1IjtzOjc6ImNoYW5uZWwiO2E6MTp7czo1OiJlbWFpbCI7aTo4Mjt9fQ%3D%3D" target="_blank" title="https://sno-isle.bibliocommons.com/locations/?_ga=2.167347966.1741286699.1659972435-363119640.1615934079&ct=yto1ontzojy6innvdxjjzsi7ytoyontpoja7czo1oijlbwfpbci7atoxo2k6odi7fxm6ntoizw1hawwio2k6odi7czo0oijzdgf0ijtzojiyoii2mmyyyjm2oduwzdu5nzc3mzeymtq5ijtzojq">contact your local library</a> at least two weeks prior to the library event.
