Resumen
En la actualidad estamos presenciando un gran cambio en el envejecimiento de la población, la esperanza de vida se ve aumentada cada año, sobre todo en los países desarrollados. En un futuro propiciara que exista una población anciana, propensa a las enfermedades crónicas y degenerativas y con tendencias a las caídas. Debemos elaborar intervenciones educativas que consigan prevenir y reducir este síndrome geriátrico que tan alta incidencia, morbimortalidad y consecuencias (físicas, sociales, psicológicas y económicas) provoca. En el programa desarrollado a continuación se explicara el problema de este síndrome geriátrico en la actualidad junto con los factores de riesgo que nos pueden llevar a sufrir una caída, las consecuencias que estas pueden tener y los problemas que pueden provocar para dar paso a un Programa de Educación para la Salud para prevención de caídas orientado a las personas mayores de 65 años de Lebrija (Sevilla).
