Résumé

Falls among older people are usually the result of several causes combined. Identifying all the fall-related factors that apply to a particular individual and providing comprehensive multifactorial intervention is recommended for the prevention of falls among older people. However, the overall net benefit of multifactorial intervention in preventing falls is small, and it does not appear to improve fall-related outcomes, such as the number of fall-related injuries. Therefore, we might require new perspectives to overcome this situation. Here, we raise two novel strategies for fall prevention among older people. One is using physical therapists more actively. The other is using aromatherapy for stabilization of older people. Physical therapists should carry out detailed gait assessment and caregiver education. Aromatherapy is effective in improving balance and mental stability in older people. To overcome refractory geriatric syndrome, there is no choice but to eliminate all preconceived ideas before choosing the best fall prevention strategies. Geriatr Gerontol Int 2021; 21: 445-450.
