The average hospital stay is 10 days longer for a fall than for any other cause
Over half of those falls will happen at home. Falls can pose a serious health risk for older adults and those living with chronic conditions. They are also the leading cause of injury-related hospitalization in Manitoba. The longer it takes for them to get help, the more likely they will experience complications.

“It’s important to remember that Lifeline isn’t just for seniors and it’s more than a help button. I wear my Lifeline every day – it is part of getting dressed. In fact, I call it my “best friend” that I wear around my neck. For me, having Lifeline allows me to enjoy the simple pleasures that come with doing the things I want to do – on my own and independently. It’s wonderful. I’m thrilled with the freedom it provides me and many other people like me…”
