Funded Activity Summary

This project will investigate the link between vitamin D and falls in people with stroke. It will be the first study to examine associations between vitamin D and falls in people with stroke and establish whether interventions to prevent falls in people with stroke may need to include vitamin D supplementation. This project is a first vital step towards developing an effective falls prevention intervention for the large numbers of Australian stroke survivors, which currently does not exist.
