Statewide Falls Prevention for Older Adults - Wisconsin

"View trends in unintentional fall-related emergency department visits, hospitalizations, and deaths among Wisconsin adults aged 65+ from 2019 to 2024, along with the associated costs of care. Over this time, hospitalizations and deaths have remained fairly steady, while emergency department visits have increased. This trend may suggest that more older adults are seeking care after a fall and connecting to needed resources, even if their injuries are less severe and are not fatal or don’t require hospitalization."

"This report, developed by the Falls Free Wisconsin Coalition, aims to examine the local and state data in Wisconsin so that we can better understand who is falling, where falls are happening, and how trends are changing over time. Falls may be common, but don’t need to be accepted as an inevitable part of aging."

Wisconsin Suicide Prevention Plan

"Suicide remains a significant public health concern in Wisconsin. From 2014-2023, suicide rates in Wisconsin increased by about 15%. Behind every statistic on suicide death is a tremendous loss, with profound impact on individuals, families, and communities that cannot be adequately quantified or described in words. The work of Prevent Suicide Wisconsin and our many partners throughout the years is fueled by our love for those we have lost, and our commitment to generating hope through action. Wisconsin’s Suicide Prevention Plan is designed to increase the effectiveness of suicide prevention efforts by providing statewide data along with best practices, resources, and recommended action steps for those who share this same commitment."
