So pleased to work with Profs Ian Cameron and Sue Kurrle on this @theMJA piece. Both are @syd_health @SHPartners physicians who genuinely promote #PhysicalActivity for #HealthyAgeing and #FallPrevention in their practice as described in the article. @anzfps @NSWFallsNetwork.
Falls present a major, growing and neglected public health problem with devastating consequences for older individuals, their families and health care systems.
