Seniors

 

 

Older adults - those over 65 years of age- are twice as likely to be killed or injured by fires or falls, compared to the population at large.  By age 75 that risk increases to three times that of the general population and four times at age 85. 

Arlington County Fire Department recommends the following web sites as resources on how to prevent fires and falls.
