Synopsis for Falls Prevention Talk
Falls is an increasingly prevalent issue amongst our elderly population. In Singapore, about one-third of older adults aged above 60 have fallen more than once. This is concerning as falls can lead to serious consequences such as injuries, reduced mobility and loss of independence, thus negatively impacting on one's overall health and quality of life.
Many falls can in fact be prevented by identifying risk factors and strategies to improve safety at homes and in the community. In this talk, participants will learn:
1) Risk factors of falls, including identifying common fall hazards within the home environment
2) Strategies to improve home safety and prevent incidence of falls, including behavioural changes, environmental modifications and use of assistive devices
3) Simple exercises to maintain strength and balance, in order to prevent falls
Come join us on this informative talk to learn how to safeguard you and your loved ones from falls!

A book written by clinicians for clinicians that presents a broad view of the clinical applications of opioids; it covers the pharmacology of opioids and its clinical application in a wide range of situations from acute to chronic cancer and non-cancer pain across ages from paediatric to geriatric populations.
It also covers the socio-historical, ethical, legal and criminal aspects related to the use of opioids, and includes the limitations of opioids as well as recommended precautionary measures when prescribing these drugs. For the busy clinician who has to manage pain either as a generalist or a specialist, this is a very handy text to keep within reach.
