3 Day Foundation Course in Falls and Bone Health

A three-day foundation course in falls prevention and bone health, running at the MISA Building in St James’s Hospital on James Street. This is a CPD (continuous professional development) course for healthcare professionals working in physiotherapy, nursing, occupational therapy, or related fields where falls prevention is a clinical priority.

Falls and fractures in older adults are among the most costly and preventable outcomes in Irish healthcare. The course covers assessment frameworks, intervention strategies, exercise programming for bone health, and nutritional considerations, giving clinicians a structured foundation that translates directly into practice.

What to expect

9am Tuesday to Thursday over three days in St James’s Hospital, one of Ireland’s largest acute hospitals. The MISA Building is the hospital’s modern education and research facility, well equipped for this kind of intensive training programme.

The course is aimed at professionals rather than the general public. Check the Eventbrite page for any registration prerequisites, CPD accreditation details, and whether the course runs on consecutive days or is spread across separate weeks.
