REDUCING FALLS IN SENIOR COMMUNITIES.....While we have patients who come to us from Wisconsin, Indiana, and downstate Illinois, we often hear from those in local retirement communities who would like to participate in our program, but have no reliable transportation. Therefore, in September 2008, we successfully created the "No Falls Zone" Initiative, which brings our entire medical team to your senior living/retirement community.
