TY - JOUR PY - 2022// TI - Cost effectiveness of fall prevention programmes for older adults JO - British journal of community nursing A1 - Benedetto, Valerio A1 - Hill, James A1 - Harrison, Joanna SP - 530 EP - 533 VL - 27 IS - 11 N2 - Falls are associated with a substantial increase in risk of mortality and are the second leading cause of unintentional death worldwide. A single fall can affect all aspects of an older person's life. These broad impacts can lead to worse disability outcomes and a higher likelihood of long-term nursing home admission. There is a need to identify not just effective falls prevention interventions but also cost effectiveness.
