 		"All patients 75 years of age or older (or 70 years of age or older, if they are known to be at increased risk for falling) should be asked whether they have a history of falls and, if they do, should be carefully questioned about the circumstances of the falls and examined for potential risk factors. Strategies involving multifactorial assessment and intervention effectively reduce the rate of falling", says Marie E Tinnetti, M.D. in her article published in The New England Journal Of Medicine.
