Understanding Slip and Fall Accidents
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), millions of older individuals fall every year. Their research also establishes that individuals who slip and fall once are more likely to fall again. Slipping and falling becomes an accident if an individual falls and sustains injuries due to the negligent action (or inaction) of another.
Several conditions can cause slip and falls, including:
- Torn carpets
- Recent changes to the flooring
- Slippery floor
- Poor lighting
- Narrow stairs
- Broken or aging sidewalks
