Falls Cause
Half of Home
Accident Deaths
A Cooperative Extension Service
health specialist took advantage
of National Farm Safety Week,
July 21-27, to remind Georgians
that almost half of all accidental
I deaths ,in homes are the result ot
I falls.
Miss Lucile Higginbotham of
the University of Georgia said falls
can occur at anytime, at anyplace,
and to anyone. “People fall in
side and outside the home, in
the living room, dining room, bed
room. bathroom, kitchen, on
stairs and other places.’’
And to dispel the common theory
that falls happen only to young
children and individuals over 65
I years of age. Miss Higginbotham
declared: “Men and women be
tween the ages of 25 and 44 are
as likely to fall down stairs as a
young child or a senior citizen.”
She did say that individuals un
der five and over 65 are more like
ly to be fatally injured from falls.
Other fall facts cited by Miss
Higginbotham are these:
Many more girls and women
than boys and men are treated
1 at hospitals for injuries from falls
Both men and women are more
often hospitalized for falling down
stairs, although a surprising num
ber fall up stairs.
Family members are injured on
stairs more frequently during
j summer months, although this is
' a time for outdoor activities.
Individuals over 64 years of age
are just as likely to fall on one
day as another. Children tinder
five years of age, however, fall
