About Course
Osteoporosis weakens bones so that they break more easily – often from a minor fall or even a cough. Learn who is at risk, how it is diagnosed and treated, and the practical steps care workers and families can take to prevent falls and fractures and support people living with the condition.
This course provides general awareness only. It does not replace clinical assessment, training from a qualified professional, or your organisation’s policies and procedures, and it is not an accredited qualification. If someone is seriously unwell, call 999.
