Speaker: Sandy Alexander, B.Sc (OT)
Level: Beginner
This interactive course provides Complex Rehab Technology (CRT) suppliers with a deep understanding of how occupational therapists (OTs) use activity-based insights to identify fall risks and recommend safety solutions. Grounded in over 35 years of clinical experience, this session breaks down the most common fall risk areas in the home, explores effective prevention strategies, and emphasizes the importance of two-handed support and accessible design. Suppliers will gain the knowledge to have more informed, solution-based conversations with therapists and clients alike—turning proactive safety into a key differentiator in the CRT landscape.
Learning Outcomes:
- Identify common fall risk areas within the bathroom and describe how everyday activities can increase the likelihood of a fall.
- Explain the clinical rationale behind activity-based product recommendations, such as the 3-point contact rule and two-handed support.
- Recommend appropriate fall prevention solutions based on individual client activities and functional needs, helping to position their business as a fall prevention authority.
