Head Injury a Key Risk in Senior Falls

Brain injuries account for half of all deaths from falls, and the death rate from falls among our elderly has increased by about 55 percent since 1990. One in three seniors aged 65 and older fall with 30 percent requiring medical treatment. Severe injury often results as the veins and arteries of older people are more vulnerable to a sudden blow or jolt to the head.


Brain Injury is Irreversible... Don't take the Risk....

Reduce the Risk of Devastating Head and Brain Injury with HeadSaver™. The Stylish, Lightweight, Comfortable Head Protector.

Brain injury is a very serious social and medical health injury that directly impacts on the social and political economy that exceeds $57 billion dollars annually and rising. Each year, an estimated 1.5 million people in the U.S. sustain a traumatic brain injury, and 135,000 people in Australia.


These figures don't include other injuries including cuts, bruising, broken noses etc. The impact on their families and caregivers is immense. Head injuries, resulting from falls, are among the most serious form of injury which can lead to death and one of the main causes of nonfatal injuries that limit independent living among people 65 years and older. While medications, such as sedatives and anti-anxiety drugs, often increase the risk of falls and fall-related injuries, poor vision, and just difficulty in moving from place to place put the elderly at risk of a fall that results in a fatal or debilitating head injury.

The Very Serious Social and Economical Impact of Brain Injuries

Seniors often develop a fear of falling, causing them to limit activities which leads to reduced mobility. Wearing a HeadSaver can restore confidence of motion to the elderly, both preserving physical health and increasing senior mobility.
