Falls risk and Cannabis use

Posted Le 25 février 2019

Last week we were fortunate to host Dr. Joanne Ho's presentation "Cannabis and the Older Adult" and she highlighted a lot of important considerations including the fact that there is still a lot of unknowns in terms to safety among older adults particularly those with comorbidities. One of the risks mentioned was falls.  The recording of the presentation will be available online for a few weeks only.

It got us wondering is anyone in Ontario researching or tracking the incidence of falls that may be correlated with cannabis use in older adults?
