Additional Resources
We’ve streamlined the website to focus on Fall Prevention Month in Canada. This website now houses the tools and resources that organizations and groups can use to raise awareness and engage their communities in preventing falls and fall-related injuries as part of the annual Fall Prevention Month campaign each November. We’ve moved material formerly housed under Additional Resources, which can be used all year-round, to Parachute’s website. Parachute is Canada’s national charity dedicated to injury prevention. This move allows us to offer you an enhanced and targeted experience when seeking information related to Fall Prevention Month and its annual campaign.
Finding the Additional Resources on Parachute’s website:
For practitioners
- Child Falls Collection: This collection is for professionals and practitioners working in the field of injury prevention and seeking specialized resources on falls in children. Here, you will find evidence-based resources and guidelines, statistics, infographics, training and more to enhance your practice.
- Adult Falls Collection: This collection is for professionals and practitioners working in the field of injury prevention and seeking specialized resources on falls in adults and older adults. Here, you will find evidence-based resources and guidelines, statistics, infographics, training and more to enhance your practice.
For the public
- Falls in Children Injury Topic Page: If you are a parent, guardian or caregiver looking for resources specifically related to falls in children, this is the ideal place to explore.

We hope this new approach allows you to efficiently access the information most relevant to your needs. Thank you for your continued support and remember: all Canadians have a role to play in preventing falls.
