Which of the following is NOT typically a focus of a multidisciplinary fall risk assessment?

• A. Improving bone density
• B. Home safety modifications
• C. Vision checks
• D. Footwear assessment

Answer: (A)

The key idea is that a fall risk assessment focuses on factors that increase the chance of falling and ways to prevent falls, not on strengthening bones to reduce fracture risk after a fall. Improving bone density is about osteoporosis management and reducing fracture risk if a fall happens, which is important but not the primary target of a multidisciplinary fall risk assessment. The typical focuses are environmental safety at home, vision checks, and proper footwear, all aimed at preventing a fall from occurring. Therefore, improving bone density isn’t a standard focus of the fall risk assessment, even though it supports overall injury prevention in the broader bone-health context.
