Together we can Fight the Fall!
What You Should Know About Fall Risk & Prevention
Just about everyone has experienced a fall at some point after losing their balance or tripping over an object. Although common, falls can be dangerous and lead to many types of injuries, some of them long-term or even fatal. Fortunately, the most common causes of falling are also preventable.
What happens in the body when we fall?
Falling occurs because the bodys balance has been disrupted. A persons body can maintain balance because the brain receives and interprets information from several different types of sources:1
Vision (from the eyes)
Proprioception (from the joints and muscles, which provide sense of touch)
Vestibular system (from the inner ear, which senses motion, equilibrium, and where we are in a physical space)
Based on this input, the brain sends information to different parts of the body to help maintain balance. Sometimes the different sources may send conflicting information. For example, have you ever gotten off of a treadmill, boat, or out of a moving car only to feel like you are still moving?
Most of the time, the brain can correct conflicting information to keep a person steady on their feet. Occasionally, however, a person may become off-balance and fall.
Falling is both common and dangerous.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that more than one out of four older people (those aged 65 and up) falls each year.2 Twenty percent of falls lead to serious injuries, such as broken bones or a head injury.
The CDC also has found:
More than 3 million older people are injured in falls and receive treatment in emergency departments each year.
At least 300,000 older people are hospitalized for hip fractures each year. Of these hip fractures, 95 percent are caused by falling.
Falls are the most common cause of traumatic brain injuries.
Medical costs for falls in 2015 were more than $50 billion, with Medicare and Medicaid taking on 75 percent of these costs.
A person who falls once becomes more likely to fall again, especially at an older age.
People who have fallen in the past tend to become fearful of another fall, which can make them socially withdrawn or less
physically active, which actually increases the risk of falls.
What are the risks of falling?
The risk of falling increases with age, but falls can happen to anyone, at any time, for many different reasons. Most cases of falling involve several different causes or risk factors.3,4 Some of the more common types include:
Muscle weakness, especially in the legs
Lack of vitamin D
Trouble with walking or balance
Side effects of medications like sedatives, antidepressants, or cold medicine that can cause drowsiness or dizziness
Poor vision
Loss of hearing
Foot pain or improper footwear
Uneven flooring or stairs
Clutter in the home
Consumption of alcohol
Memory loss, difficulty concentrating, or confusion
Fainting or loss of consciousness
Poor balance
Incontinence that causes frequent or urgent trips to the bathroom
Drop-in blood pressure
Walking on ice or wet floors
If you find that you are dizzy or otherwise losing your balance, dont ignore it. Its important to seek help as soon as balanceissues begin. A lot of people wait too long. But the longer you wait, the worse it can get.
How can physical therapy help prevent falls?
Improving your walking skills technically known as your gait and your balance are interrelated challenges. At FYZICAL Therapy & Balance Centers, we help you master these skills to decrease your risk of injury, while also increasing your confidence and independence.
Balance and gait are inextricably linked because they tend to impact one another. Therapy that improves gait and balance works to help keep the bodys different balance and movement systems functioning in harmony.
Gait and balance training has a range of benefits:
Avoiding injuries associated with falls or dizziness
Increased confidence with your footing and movement
Reduced pain from poor posture or gait
What happens in balance and gait training?
First, well evaluate your gait to determine potential problems with strength and posture. Simple movements to test balance are also part of the assessment. Together, these basic evaluations help us know what to focus on in terms of therapy.
Hip and ankle weakness often leads to balance problems, as does poor posture. Strength and flexibility movements can help counteract these problems. These are often as simple as leg lifts while seated in a chair, or knee marching. We may also practice standing on one leg, walking heel-to-toe, or tracking the movement of your thumb with your eyes as you move it in various positions.
The team at FYZICAL Therapy & Balance Centers knows how important balance and walking are for independent living, as well as for work activities, exercise, sports, and enjoying life in general.
We offer the following programs and therapies to help reduce the risk of falls:
Assessment and Evaluation Programs
Difficulty Walking
Gait Training and Balance Programs
Fall Prevention and Balance Retraining

Morning Mindfulness: A Healthy Habit for Senior Wellness
As of 2022, approximately 18.3% of U.S. adults (nearly 1 in 5) reported practicing mindfulness and meditation, according to Scientific Reports Journal. This significant figure reflects a growing recognition of the benefits of mindfulness practices across various age groups. Even in retirement, the mind doesn't always slow down. Racing thoughts, anxious feelings, and disrupted sleep can carry over into the morning. Practicing morning mindfulness offers a simple, science-backed way to reduce stress and boost emotional steadiness...all before breakfast. In Venice, FL, where early sunlight filters through palm trees and the air stays warm year-round, seniors have the perfect environment to create peaceful wellness routines. If you've been looking for simple habits that can boost mindfulness in aging, this post is for you. What Is Morning Mindfulness?Morning mindfulness is the practice of slowing down, paying attention, and being fully present as you begin your day. That doesn't mean sitting in silence for an hour or meditating like a monk. It might be as quick as five minutes spent focusing on your breath, listening to morning sounds, or just stretching while noticing how your body feels. Older adults, in particular, tend to benefit from this because the early hours often set the tone for how steady or scattered the rest of the day might feel. For instance, taking time in the morning to center yourself can make it easier to manage distractions or unexpected events later on. And let's be honest, that kind of calm doesn't come from scrolling headlines or jumping straight into to-do lists. Morning mindfulness might be one of the simplest wellness routines worth building, especially for those embracing slower, more intentional living. Why Morning Mindfulness Helps SeniorsResearchers have found that mindfulness practices can actually rewire parts of the brain tied to emotion regulation and memory. For seniors, this has a real effect on everyday life. It can mean fewer anxious thoughts, a more balanced mood, and sharper mental focus. That alone makes it worth the effort. According to a study published in the National Library of Medicine, mindfulness practices helped improve overall mental health in seniors, particularly reducing feelings of loneliness and depression. That's probably because mindfulness pulls your attention away from worry and toward what's happening right now.Some benefits of morning mindfulness include:Reduced stress and worry during the dayImproved focus and clarity in conversations and activitiesGreater emotional stability and less reactivityBetter sleep and lower blood pressure over timeIn communities where calm mornings are easy to come by, like Venice, mindfulness fits right in. Seniors can walk the Legacy Trail or simply sit on their patio as the sun rises. Either way, the quiet of the morning can act like a natural support system for better mental health in seniors. How to Start a Morning Mindfulness RoutineThe hardest part of any new routine is starting it. That's just how habits work. So instead of overthinking it, focus on keeping things simple. Pick one small activity that makes you feel grounded and repeat it daily. This could be breathing slowly for a minute while sitting up in bed, or writing down one thing you're looking forward to. Some people take their coffee out to the porch and just sit quietly for a few minutes. You don't need rules, just awareness. Here's a basic way to build morning mindfulness into your day:Wake up and sit comfortably with no distractionsClose your eyes and take five slow, deep breathsNotice what your body feels like -- tense, relaxed, sore, or settledMentally check in: what's your mood or energy like right now?Set a soft intention for the day (example: "Stay calm," or "Notice small joys")If that feels like a lot, start with just the breathing. That alone can help reduce stress and bring your attention into the present.Some simple tools or habits that support a routine include:Keeping a notebook by the bed for short morning reflectionsPlaying calming sounds or soft music when you wake upLeaving the phone off until after breakfastUsing a guided meditation app like Headspace or CalmSitting by a window with natural light for five quiet minutesAt Aston Gardens At Pelican Pointe, it's even easier to keep up a routine like this. Residents can enjoy peaceful common areas, beautifully maintained walking paths, and daily activities that support healthy aging practices. When your community already encourages mindfulness, it tends to become second nature. Making Mindfulness a Social HabitSome people prefer to practice alone, yet mindfulness can also be shared. Doing a group stretch class, attending a seated yoga session, or even just talking with friends about intentions for the day, all of that can bring mindfulness into everyday life. In Venice, where outdoor spaces and community culture support staying active and connected, there are more opportunities to turn quiet mindfulness into something communal. For instance, outdoor tai chi groups meet in parks and recreation centers across Sarasota County. Activities like these combine movement, breath, and awareness; a natural fit for seniors who prefer gentle exercise over sitting meditation. And honestly, shared routines tend to be more consistent. That's why some senior communities offer wellness routines built around group sessions, social time, and light movement. It's part of what helps seniors stay connected while also improving how they feel each day. At Aston Gardens At Pelican Pointe, the Celebrations Activities Program often includes yoga, meditation, and wellness discussions. This kind of structure helps mindfulness become less of a task and more of a natural part of community life. Bring Calm, Focus, and Intention Into Your MorningsMorning mindfulness isn't complicated, but it can make a noticeable difference in how calm, focused, and emotionally steady you feel each day. From improving senior emotional health to supporting healthy aging practices, a few mindful minutes in the morning can go a long way. At Aston Gardens At Pelican Pointe in Venice, FL, residents have access to relaxing outdoor spaces, guided wellness activities, and peaceful amenities like our cozy lounges and on-site yoga and meditation classes, perfect for building mindfulness into your routine. Our community stands out with chef-prepared meals, a full social calendar, and a focus on personalized, stress-free living.

Can Cataracts Come Back After Surgery? What Seniors Should Know
Close to 20% of adults between the ages of 65 and 74 in the United States have cataracts that affect their vision. This number rises to more than 50% for people over 80. At Aston Gardens At Pelican Pointe, located just a couple of miles from downtown Venice, we understand how important clear vision is for seniors to enjoy daily life. Many wonder, can cataracts come back after surgery? In this blog post, we will explain what happens with cataracts after treatment and what seniors should know about cataract surgery for seniors. Our goal is to help you or your loved ones feel confident about eye health and what to expect after surgery. Let's take a closer look. What Are Cataracts?In simple terms, cataracts happen when the clear lens inside the eye becomes cloudy. This lens helps focus light onto the retina, which allows us to see clearly. When a cataract forms, it blocks or blurs the light, making vision less sharp. People with cataracts may notice that things look foggy, colors seem faded, or they have trouble seeing at night. It often starts slowly and gets worse over time. Cataracts are very common in older adults because the lens naturally changes as we age. This clouding can make everyday tasks like reading, driving, or recognizing faces harder. Although cataracts usually develop in both eyes, one eye may be affected more than the other at first. What Is Cataract Surgery?Cataract surgery, meanwhile, is a common procedure for seniors to restore clear vision. During the surgery, the cloudy natural lens inside the eye is removed. It is then replaced with a clear artificial lens called an intraocular lens, or IOL. The surgery usually takes less than 30 minutes and is done on an outpatient basis, meaning you can go home the same day. Most people experience improved vision soon after the procedure. The risks are low, and cataract surgery is considered very safe for seniors. Doctors usually suggest surgery once cataracts start interfering with everyday tasks such as reading or driving. The goal is to help seniors regain independence and enjoy life without the frustration of blurry vision. After surgery, patients will have follow-up visits to ensure the eye is healing well. Overall, cataract surgery offers a long-lasting solution to vision problems caused by cataracts. Can Cataracts Come Back?As we've noted above, many seniors ask if cataracts can come back after surgery. The simple answer is that the original cataract cannot return.During cataract surgery, the cloudy natural lens is completely removed from the eye. Since the lens is gone, the cataract itself cannot grow back.However, some people may develop a condition called posterior capsule opacification, or PCO. This happens when the thin membrane that holds the artificial lens becomes cloudy over time. PCO can cause vision to become blurry or hazy again, similar to the symptoms of cataracts. PCO is sometimes called a "secondary cataract," but it is not a true cataract. It affects a small percentage of patients months or even years after surgery. The good news is that PCO can be treated with a quick, painless laser procedure that clears the cloudiness and restores clear vision. What Is Posterior Capsule Opacification?As mentioned earlier, PCO is often referred to as a secondary cataract and may develop months or even years following cataract surgery. While the cloudy natural lens is removed during the procedure, the thin, transparent membrane that once held the lens (known as the posterior capsule) remains to hold the new artificial lens in place. Over time, cells can grow on this membrane and cause it to become cloudy. This cloudiness can block light from reaching the retina, causing blurry or hazy vision similar to cataract symptoms. These secondary cataract symptoms may include:Faded colorsGlareDifficulty readingThe good news is that PCO is easily treated with a quick laser procedure. This treatment opens the cloudy membrane, restoring clear vision in most cases.To prevent complications, seniors should follow their eye doctor's advice on post-surgery eye care. Regular eye exams help catch PCO early and ensure long-term vision health after cataract surgery. What Seniors Should Know After Cataract SurgeryAfter cataract surgery, seniors should stay informed about their eye health to maintain clear vision. At Aston Gardens At Pelican Pointe, we encourage our residents and families to understand what to expect and how to care for their eyes after surgery. It is important to attend all follow-up appointments so the eye doctor can monitor healing and check for any issues. While cataract surgery is safe, some seniors may develop other common senior eye conditions like glaucoma or age-related macular degeneration, so regular eye exams remain essential. If vision becomes blurry again or you notice glare, halos, or difficulty reading, these could be signs of PCO, which can be treated easily. Protecting your eyes after surgery is also important. Wearing sunglasses outdoors, avoiding eye injury, and following all medical advice helps keep eyes healthy.We support seniors in staying active and independent by providing information and resources for ongoing health, including vision care. Tips for Healthy Vision After Cataract SurgeryTaking care of your eyes after cataract surgery is important to keep your vision clear. You should avoid rubbing or pressing on your eyes, and follow all instructions from your doctor about using eye drops. Another tip is to protect your eyes from bright sunlight by wearing sunglasses with UV protection whenever you are outside. Eating a balanced diet with plenty of vitamins A, C, and E helps keep your eyes healthy. Drinking enough water and not smoking also benefits your vision. Visiting your eye doctor regularly can help detect any changes in your eyesight early on.

What Is the Most Common Mental Illness in the Elderly?
According to the World Health Organization, approximately 14% of adults aged 60 and over live with a mental disorder of some kind. Mental health issues can vary greatly, and they often grow more severe with age. Unfortunately, mental illness in older adults is often overlooked or mistaken for normal signs of aging. At Aston Gardens at Pelican Pointe, we prioritize the holistic health of our residents and recognize that mental wellness is key to a fulfilling and vibrant life. Our community is located in Venice, FL, a city that offers a laid-back, coastal lifestyle with access to numerous festivals, arts and culture events, and outdoor recreational activities. Many people find themselves asking, "What is the most common mental illness in the elderly?" If you're wondering the same, keep reading this guide, which covers what you need to know. What Is the Most Common Mental Illness in the Elderly?Conditions like dementia and anxiety are well-known for affecting seniors, but depression remains the most prevalent mental health issue in older adults. Depression in seniors is more than just feeling sad or down; it's a serious medical condition that affects:MoodEnergy levelsOverall functioningFor seniors, depression can be particularly debilitating, often complicating existing health conditions and reducing independence. Why Is Depression So Common in Older Adults?Depression can affect people of all ages. But why is it such a common issue for mental health in elderly adults?Chronic Health ConditionsMany elderly individuals live with chronic illnesses such as:Heart diseaseDiabetesArthritisParkinson's diseaseThese conditions can lead to pain, disability, and a loss of independence, increasing the risk of depression. Grief and LossAs people age, they often experience the loss of spouses, friends, or family members. Grieving is natural, but prolonged sadness can develop into clinical depression. Social Isolation and LonelinessRetirement, mobility issues, and the death of peers can lead to reduced social interaction. Loneliness is a significant risk factor for depression in seniors. Medication Side EffectsSome medications prescribed for high blood pressure, chronic pain, or other conditions can contribute to depressive symptoms. People should always discuss medication with their doctors so they can know if it may increase the risk of depression or other health issues. Cognitive DeclineEarly stages of dementia or other cognitive impairments can later lead to depression. Individuals struggle with memory loss and confusion, which may take a significant toll. Signs and Symptoms of Depression in the ElderlyDepression in older adults doesn't always present the same way it does in younger people. There are some key signs of mental illness in aging individuals. Some key indicators to look out for include:Persistent sadness or hopelessnessLoss of interest in hobbies or social activitiesFatigue and low energySleep disturbances (insomnia or oversleeping)Changes in appetite (weight loss or gain)Difficulty concentrating or making decisionsPhysical aches and pains without a clear causeThoughts of death or suicideUnfortunately, many seniors dismiss these symptoms as a normal part of aging. As such, even with various signs showing, it's not uncommon to see underdiagnosis and undertreatment. How Is Depression Diagnosed and Treated?Spotting depression and treating it properly can have a huge impact on someone's life. If you or a loved one is experiencing symptoms of depression, it's important to seek help from a healthcare professional. A doctor may conduct:A physical exam to rule out other medical conditionsBlood tests to check for vitamin deficiencies or thyroid issuesA psychological evaluation to assess mood and thought patternsTreatment Options for Elderly DepressionDepression is never good, and people can often feel like there's no way out. Fortunately, however, there are several treatment options. The right senior mental health care can help someone get their life back on track. Therapy (Counseling)Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a popular treatment option that helps individuals reframe negative thoughts and develop coping strategies. Support groups can also provide a sense of community and shared understanding. MedicationAntidepressants may be prescribed, but doctors must carefully monitor side effects. Some medications can interact with other drugs seniors may be taking, which may lead to further issues. Lifestyle ChangesRegular exercise (even light activities like walking) can boost mood. Physical activity is incredibly important for seniors for both their physical and mental well-being. Many seniors become far less active as they age, so living in a retirement community that encourages different physical activities can be highly beneficial.Maintaining a healthy diet is also something many seniors fail to do. A balanced diet rich in omega-3s, vitamins, and minerals supports brain health. Social interactions are similarly important for the well-being of seniors. They can achieve social engagement through family visits, senior centers, or community events to reduce isolation. At Aston Gardens at Pelican Pointe, we organize various social activities to encourage our residents to interact with one another and form friendships. Alternative TherapiesThere are some alternative therapies that can be helpful in many cases. Some examples include:Music therapyArt therapyPet therapyHow Aston Gardens at Pelican Pointe Supports Mental WellnessThe team at Aston Gardens at Pelican Pointe understands that mental health is a crucial aspect of senior care. Our community offers:Comfortable housing optionsSupportive, compassionate staff trained to recognize signs of depressionEngaging social activities to foster connections and combat lonelinessFitness and wellness programs to promote physical and mental healthWe believe that with the right support, seniors can lead joyful, meaningful lives. While depression can be a significant burden, living in the right environment can help seniors cope with this issue far more effectively.

Recognizing the signs, seeking professional help, and maintaining an active, socially engaged lifestyle can make a significant difference.
