Falls Clinics
Falls clinics are designed to investigate the causes of falls. An initial overview assessment identifies whether a more detailed examination is required from the doctor, physiotherapist or occupational therapist.
Once potential causes of falls have been identified, appropriate treatment can be started. This could include: strength and balance exercise, review of medications, osteoporosis treatment, advice and information and / or review of home environment.
There are four falls clinics across Lambeth and Southwark, based as follows:
- Guy's Hospital, London Bridge
Guys Team
- Dulwich Hospital, Dulwich
- Lambeth Community Care Centre, Kennington
- Whittington Centre, Streatham
