Aging and Injury
Unintentional injury is one of the leading causes of death for adults aged 65 years and older. Falls and motor vehicle crashes are the top mechanisms of injury and result in the majority of traumatic brain injury-related hospitalizations and deaths among older adults. While these injuries are common, they can be prevented.
