(NAPSA)-Research by the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention shows that
falls are the leading cause of fatal and non-
fatal injuries for seniors. Fortunately, through
a combination of technology solutions and
lifestyle choices, seniors can be prepared for
the event of a fall, as well as take proactive
measures to decrease the likelihood during
Fall Prevention Awareness Week (September
22 to 28) and all through the year.
For example, medical alert devices, such
as Philips Lifeline, can provide access to a
Response Center to contact emergency help
should a fall occur. In the event of a fall, time
between the fall and getting medical atten-
tion matters. Studies show that seniors using
a medical alert device saw an emergency re-
sponse time more than 320 times faster than
seniors having to call for help on their own.
Beyond using these devices, Fall Prevention
Awareness Week marks an occasion to re-
mind seniors that staying physically and men-
tally active can help prevent falls. To begin
and maintain this activity, here are three rec-
ommended steps seniors can take to support
an independent and healthier life:
• Establish a regular fi tness regimen.
Sedentary lifestyles can gradually cause poor
fl exibility, loss of strength and decreased bone
mass-all of which will increase the chances of
falling. Establishing a consistent fi tness rou-
tine will put your body in better shape and
make exercise easier as you get older.
• Adhere to medication and physician
orders. Eighty-seven percent of adults aged
65 or older take at least two medications and
42 percent take fi ve or more. With long lists
of medication, adherence can be diffi cult-but

and family’s well-being, and adding
extra items shows you took the time to
make something just for them.
Consider these fi ve simple steps for
a do-it-yourself (DIY) apple gift basket:
1. Find an artful basket-either one
you already have or a simple, inexpen-
sive basket from a craft store, closest
big-box retailer, or even your grocery
store.
2. Fill with healthy, wholesome
apples-red, green and yellow-the more
colors, the merrier.
3. Personalize with foods or trin-
kets your giftee will enjoy-nothing
fancy; simple stocking stuffers will do.
4. Consider a theme for the basket-
Is the recipient a music afi cionado? Bird
watcher? Golf addict? Match the theme
to the person-like our suggestions, pic-
tured.
5. Accent with ribbons, stuffi ng
and personalized labels-so they know
this was created by you just for them.
Looking for inspiration for your DIY
apple gift basket? Here are four ideas:
cravings with a basket of apples paired
with yummy caramel, chocolate sauce
and honey (homemade or store-bought).
• For Friends, Family and Co-
workers. Whether you’re playing secret
Santa or looking for a last-minute gift,
prepare a basket for a perfect night in:
A beautiful assortment of apples (with a
handy slicer), savory cheese, delicious
wine and a fun wine stopper as a keep-
sake.

your own? Share it on Pinterest and oth-
er social media. After all, what’s better
than sharing ideas for the gift of health?

it’s vital to follow all directives and advice
from your physician to avoid mistakes that
can lead to falls.
• Stay social in your community. Al-
though many older Americans value their
independence, it’s important to be social and
surrounded by others who care about you.
This will help lower your chances of depres-
sion, make you happier as you age, and in-
crease the chances of someone being there for
you if you fall and need help.
If you or a loved one is concerned about
fall risk, take this advice to heart and con-
sider sharing with friends. By combining this
advice with available technologies, such as
medical alert devices, you can be properly
prepared for all circumstances.
