Fear of Falling (Excerpt 1:00)

 

 

 

Executive Producer/Grant writer

“Fear of Falling” is an award-winning short video that encourages elderly people to rethink the often self-imposed restrictions on remaining active. The elders interviewed relate their own stories showing how inactivity can actually increase rather than decrease the risk of falling. The videos were designed to be incorporated into interventions on the respective issues, but can also be used alone.
