subject was "Keep Your Employees Safe at Home, Too". Information

was provided by Bob Perry, Loss Control Manager for

LARM and LNM and it addressed many types of falls.

Falls in the home are the second leading cause of accidental death

in most communities, surpassed only by car crashes. Falls are

also the second leading cause of accidental death within the

home; poisonings being the leading cause.

Wassenberg, and Barb Wilhelm. If you would like a copy of
