| Annotation | Falls and related fractures are a major cause of disability and mortality in older people. Falls prevention services have been available in the UK for many years, but audits of these services show that improvements are needed. The authors discuss the results of the most recent audit, 'National audit of the organisation of services for falls and bone health of older people 2009', commissioned by Healthcare Quality Improvement Partnership.
