The primary outcome is to assess the impact of the group program on falls prevention and
patient education on home modifications and the implementation of technical assistance.
This study aims to demonstrate that a group program on falls prevention and patient
education will improve the acceptance and the implementation of recommendations on
technical assistance and home modifications following discharge after an hospitalization
for fall.
The secondary outcome will measure the impact of the group program on the incidence of
falls, the number of readmissions, fear of another fall and improvement in walking and
balance skills.
