Checking a fall risk box in the EMR doesn't keep your patient on their feet. The paperwork protects the facility — it's on you to protect the patient.
Because when the screen is done and your patient still isn't safe, the real work begins.
Falls aren't just a safety issue — they're one of the most complex clinical problems you face.
In this advanced certification, you'll learn both sides of the equation: how to stop falls before they ever happen — and how to intervene when the risk is already high.
- Go beyond screenings — spot hidden deficits in motor control, sensory systems, and executive function that most assessments miss
- Apply proactive risk reduction strategies — improve gait mechanics, strength, and environmental safety before the first fall occurs
- Turn functional goals into fall interventions for mobility, balance, and confidence inside real-world ADLs and IADLs
- Customize interventions for complex cases — dementia, neuropathy, vestibular deficits, polypharmacy, and multi-comorbidity patients
- Use motor learning & neuroplasticity strategies to improve carryover and accelerate gains
- Break fear-avoidance cycles to rebuild patient confidence and long-term activity tolerance
This isn't your facility's checkbox fall prevention training.
This is advanced clinical problem-solving — the way fall prevention should be.

Even when it's not canalithiasis, your patients may still be dizzy, unsteady, or at risk of falling. Learn how to:
- Use functional tools like the Motion Sensitivity Quotient, DGI, and mCTSIB
- Decode what your assessment results actually mean — and how to treat them
- Create vestibular rehab plans that integrate habituation, gaze stabilization, gait, and endurance
- Align vestibular exercises with real-life function and ADL goals
Includes case studies and assessment demos you can start using immediately.
💡 Perfect for neuro, outpatient, and home health settings where dizziness often goes under-assessed.
