Important Facts About Walk In Tubs and Bathroom Safety?
More than one third of adults 65 and older fall each year in the United States
Among older adults, falls are the leading cause of injury deaths. They are also the most common cause of nonfatal injuries and hospital admissions for trauma
In 2005, 15,800 people 65 and older died from injuries related to unintentional falls; about 1.8 million people 65 and older were treated in emergency departments for nonfatal injuries from falls, and more than 433,000 of these patients were hospitalized
Among those 65 and older, there were 51 deaths associated with tap water scalds reported to CPSC in one year.
Falls and injuries among the elderly are issues of extreme importance to the National Safety Council," said Alan C. McMillan, NSC President and CEO. "According to our 2003 data, more than 15,000 Americans 65 and older died as a result of unintentional injuries in the home. We need to take steps now in order to address this urgent national issue."
344 people died in 2005 from Drowning and submersion while in or falling into bath-tub
