These cards are designed to provide information about preventing falls and injuries in both seniors and young children. They were designed by the Grey Bruce (Ontario) Fall Prevention and Intervention Program, in collaboration with the Community of Practice Fall Prevention Month team.
Trivia can be shared in several different formats:
- Group presentations (virtual or in person)
- Hospital/Doctor Office/Optometrist/ waiting room screens
- Websites
