Steady on Your Feet self-assessment tool

The Steady on Your Feet website and interactive self-assessment tool is part of an NHS national campaign to help reduce falls. The East Surrey Ageing Well Steering Group has supported First Community to develop this tool to help prevent falls and support individuals to maintain their independence.

The fully accessible website provides a range of advice, guidance, videos and online resources for anyone worried about falling. The site aims to provide users with the confidence to maintain their mobility and reduce the risk of falls.  There is information on managing hazards in the home, diet tips, exercises, support groups and partner organisations who can help support.

The website is free to use, and an assessment can be completed by an individual or with support from a friend, carer or health professional to generate an action plan to reduce the risk of falls.
