Fall Prevention in the Home
Falling carries an increasing risk as we age, so for this year’s Health Aging Month, we’d like to talk about fall prevention in your home.
Interior Community Health Center is a mission-driven health center with locations in Fairbanks and Healy, Alaska. We provide medical, integrated behavioral health, and dental services to all community members. All of the providers and staff at ICHC focus on delivering patient-centered, quality care “with a heart.”
Our mission is to provide universal access to excellent primary health care for patients of all ages, stages of life, and backgrounds. To make health care more affordable, ICHC offers a sliding fee discount for patients who qualify, based on household size and income level. Our sliding fee discount is offered to patients with or without insurance coverage.
ICHC takes a comprehensive approach to health and to long-term relationships with patients to better fulfill their needs. Our providers focus on the whole person and comprehensive care, including preventive screening, not just the immediate health concern. Patients have access to a wide range of services, including preventative medicine, wellness services, acute care, chronic disease management, prenatal care, annual exams, short-term health education, promotion and counseling, dental cleanings and treatments, and more. Our medical and integrated behavioral health providers are also available for easy-to-use virtual visits.
