A fall can happen in seconds—but the impact can last for months. Whether it's a hip fracture, head injury, or shaken confidence, care after a fall in Seattle ensures seniors recover with the safety, support, and supervision they need at home.

Why In-Home Care After a Fall Is Critical

Falls are the #1 cause of injury-related hospitalization among Seattle seniors. After discharge, many return home without enough support—risking re-injury, slow healing, or even permanent loss of independence.

In-home care helps bridge the gap between hospital and full recovery. At Caringene, we offer immediate support to help seniors:

• Get safely in and out of bed or chairs

• Bathe, dress, and move around the house

• Stay on top of medications, meals, and hydration

• Prevent future falls with mobility support and home safety checks

Common Injuries That Require Elderly Care After a Fall

Many families in Seattle seek care after injuries like:

• Hip fractures or replacements

• Back or spinal compression injuries

• Head trauma or concussions

• Severe bruising, balance loss, or fear of falling again

Falls aren’t always about physical injuries—they can trigger emotional trauma too. Our caregivers provide both physical help and companionship to ease the road to recovery.
