OUR ANTI-SLIP HELPS SENIORS AGE IN PLACE


When can something as simple as an anti-slip treatment mean the difference between independence and dependence?

When you have achieved "senior status" and a minor slip and fall can result in a long-term disability or even the nursing home.

"95% of people over 75 say they want to live independently or "age in place" as long as possible.

The best way to do this is to prevent accidents before they happen.

Half of all older adults hospitalized for hip fractures cannot return home or live independently after their injuries."

Aging in place is a huge issue for aging Americans. NeverSlip can help them do this by helping them retain independence as long as possible.

Over 55,000 slip/fall injuries requiring hospital care occur in North America each day. The next victim could be you.

Slip and falls are the number one cause of accidents in Hotels, Restaurants and Public Buildings.

Slips and falls are the leading cause of death in the workplace and the source of more than 20% of all disabling injuries.

Slip/Fall accidents account for 30% of all reported injuries.

Two out of three fall deaths occur in the home and our elderly are primary victims. 66% of injury cases for people 65 years or older were a result of a fall and over 75% of slip and fall deaths occur to people 65 years of age or older.

55% of persons over 40 years have sustained at least one debilitating injury, due to a slip and fall incident.

There are estimated to be 11 million slip/fall accidents per year in North America. Falls make up nearly half of ALL home accidents.

There are estimated to be 104 million lost workdays per year – i.e. 65% of all lost man-hours. That’s over 4000 lifetimes.

There are social burdens related to this problem, including Worker’s Compensation claims over $220 Million per year – i.e. 40% of all accident claims paid out.

Worker’s Compensation and Liability Insurance Rates are increasing on the average of 30% per year.

The focus of everyone should first be on prevention.

Google 411 FREE


Just leave it up to Google to come up with something like this!!!

Here's a number worth putting in your cell phone, or your home phone speed dial: 1-800-goog411.

This is an awesome service from Google, and it's free -- great when you are on the road.
Don't waste your money on information calls and don't waste your time manually dialing the number.

I am driving along in my car and I need to call the golf course and I don't know the number. I hit the speed dial for information that I have programmed.

The voice at the other end says, "City & State." I say, "Garland, Texas." He says, "Business, Name or Type of Service."

I say, Firewheel Golf Course."

He says, "Connecting" and Firewheel answers the phone.

How great is that?
