Call (908) 912-6342 — Stroke Fall Prevention
Call From the Hospital — Stroke Recovery Care Starts Day of Discharge
Stroke survivors have double the fall risk of the general senior population — the CDC confirms this makes fall prevention the single most important safety measure after discharge from Morristown Medical Center. One-sided weakness (hemiparesis), impaired balance, medication dizziness, and visual field changes all converge to create a constant fall hazard. Stroke fall prevention near Morristown Medical Center from 24 HOUR Home Care NJ addresses this with dedicated one-on-one support for every transfer, every step, and every bathroom trip.
Our RN conducts a fall-specific home safety assessment for the stroke survivor — addressing one-sided neglect, visual field cuts, and mobility asymmetry that standard fall assessments miss. Our certified caregivers then provide hands-on assistance for every movement, plus daily balance exercises that rebuild stability over time. See Morris County post-stroke care.
