Happy Friday everyone!! At Bickford of Worthington Assisted Living, we had an enchanting Italian-themed afternoon as part of our ongoing celebration of National Assisted Living Week.

As we age, our risk for falls increases, and our ability to recover decreases. That’s why reducing fall risk is so critical, and the prevalence of falls among older adults is so concerning. In fact, 1 in 4 falls in senior living results in a higher level of care. But at Bickford of Worthington, we manage falls with SafelyYou’s extraordinary combination of world-leading AI and remote clinical support, which is proven to reduce falls and fall-related ER visits. So, our residents stay safer, are more likely to stay out of the ER, and stay in the community they trust to care for them. #WeAgeWell #FallsPreventionAwarenessMonth
