Falls are a leading cause of injury-related hospitalizations and often the reason why older adults lose their independence.
Falls are not inevitable.
Prevention efforts and systems of care can reduce falls and negative impacts to quality of life.

[Report] BC Coroners Service released drug toxicity deaths data for September. Another 171 people were killed.
The drug supply is toxic. It doesn't matter where a person lives or how old they are: anyone who relies on the unregulated drug supply is at risk of dying.
