Falls are one of the most dangerous and expensive health risks facing older adults today — and they happen more often than you think.
Whether you’re a senior or a caregiver, understanding the true financial cost of a senior fall is a critical step in protecting health, independence, and your wallet.
📉 The Hidden Costs of a Senior Fall
A single fall can cost more than $30,000 in medical expenses — and that’s just the beginning. The financial burden often includes:
- Hospital bills and emergency care
- Physical therapy and long-term rehabilitation
- Assisted living or in-home care services
- Home modifications for safety
- Emotional costs like fear, anxiety, and loss of independence
Even minor falls can lead to major life changes — physically, emotionally, and financially.
