As a leading cause of injury, falls are a significant issue across all age groups in Alberta. In 2019, 161,539 Albertans visited ERs and Urgent Care Centres with 18,702 hospitalized due to a fall. There is an increased risk of falls in the winter with slippery conditions, ice and snow. Melting snow can cause a thin layer of ice that is hard to see. Always try to find a path around the snow or ice when you can. There are a few simple tips to prevent falls when walking on icy sidewalks, roadways and stairs.
Have you heard the phrase “Walk like a Penguin”? Our little tuxedo wearing friends are low and slow and take small steps when walking on ice. Point your feet outward, legs apart, walk flat footed and take short steps, use your arms for balance. 10s of millions of penguins can’t be wrong!
Stay safe out there and walk like a penguin!
