New PR Release: Staggering Fall Statistics Reveal the Impact of Delayed Medical Response for Older Adults
CPR Guardian published a new article titled "Staggering Fall Statistics: How Delayed Response Increases Risks for Older Adults." This piece delves into the pressing public health concern of falls among the elderly and emphasizes how prompt medical assistance can dramatically improve outcomes.
- (1888PressRelease) October 15, 2024 - Data sheds light on the growing dangers older adults face after a fall, particularly when medical help is delayed. Falls continue to be a leading cause of emergency hospital admissions in the UK, with nearly 30% of older adults experiencing a fall each year. What’s more concerning is the severe impact of delayed response times, which can significantly worsen health outcomes—leading to more serious injuries, emotional trauma, and even increased risk of death.
A recent report shows that older adults who remain on the ground for over an hour after falling are at an alarming risk of death within six months. Timely intervention is critical for preventing these devastating outcomes.
Innovative solutions like fall detection alarms and wearable technologies, such as the CPR Guardian III, are helping to reduce response times and improve outcomes for older adults. Chelsea Davies, COO of CPR Global Tech, notes, “Fall alarms not only provide timely help but also empower older adults by enhancing their independence and improving their quality of life.”
