Outcomes of a Physical Therapist-Led, Statewide, Community-Based Fall Risk Screening

Conclusions: Screening and education using the STEADI toolkit during community-based screenings result in short- and long-term behavior change to reduce fall risk among older adults, particularly those with moderate to high fall risk. Further research is needed to identify barriers and incentives among participants who do not make fall-related behavioral changes after screening.
