If I could think of one tip to tell my Grandmother, Grandfather or my Mother or Father to help them stay safe and avoid an unintended fall, this is what I would suggest...

First, all should understand a bit more about the systems needed to keep us upright and erect. This is the very definition of balance! Wanting to avoid going into great and tireless detail, however, it is important our elders understand three factors imperative to balance:
1. Synapses in the brain move further apart as we age.
2. The vestibular system
3. Proprioceptors and mechanoreceptors

As far as THE one tip I could give... PRACTICE!

Please listen to the Chris as he explains in further detail about this one tip...
