Among people 65 years and older, falls are the leading cause of injury deaths and the most common cause of non-fatal injuries and hospital admissions for trauma. Each year in the United States, nearly one third of older adults experience a fall. According to the Department of Health & Human Services Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, "...1.8 million (people 65 and older) were treated in emergency departments for non-fatal injuries related to falls. The total direct cost for falls among older adults in 2000 was about $19 billion." Based upon a 2006 AARP published study, nursing home costs in the United States average $71,000/year. The total average nursing home stay costs a whopping $177,500! Assisted living facilities average $32,000/year and in-home care costs an average of $19/hour.For more information about the GE NX-475 Wireless Panic/Medical Transmitter from Certified Alarms, or similar products, please call (225) 928-7867, or complete our Rapid Response Form from any page.
