The high incidence of falls and fall-related injuries among Canadians over the age of 65 is a key public health issue. The most current data indicates that this cohort represents approximately 15% of the Canadian population, yet it accounts for 51% of all unintentional fall cases requiring hospitalisation and totals 46% of health care costs for falls. As a result, the direct and indirect healthcare costs have been estimated at over 2 billion and 6 billion Canadian dollars, respectively. Despite population-based work that has revealed numerous factors that are predictive of falls, there has been little change in the population standardised rate of fall-related hospitalisation and injury among older adults.

65岁以上加拿大人的高福尔斯和跌倒相关伤害发生率是一个关键的公共卫生问题。最新数据表明，该队列约占加拿大人口的15%，但占所有需要住院治疗的意外跌倒病例的51%，占福尔斯医疗保健费用的46%。因此，直接和间接的保健费用估计分别超过20亿和60亿加元。尽管基于人群的研究揭示了许多预测福尔斯的因素，但老年人中与跌倒相关的住院和受伤的人群标准化率几乎没有变化。
