Conveniently located in the Hunterdon Hills Plaza, 1386 Hwy 22W, Lebanon. s T o p Fa l l i n g n oW By Howard J. Tzorfas D.P.M. Why be concerned about falling? • Falls and fall-related injuries are the leading cause of accidental death in older people. • Half of seniors who fall, will fall again within a year. • Nearly half of the seniors who fall reduce their activity after a fall. • Most fractures among older adults are caused by falls. What if you or your loved ones could wear a simple brace in their shoes to prevent falling or injury? There is a new, prescribed, custom-made ankle/foot orthosis designed to easily fit into most shoes. By wearing this brace, it stabilizes the foot in the presence of weakness and fatigue and it stimulates skin receptors, providing feedback to the brain. It also provides ankle support which improves balance, and it helps avoid falls by reducing postural sway. It also provides foot clearance, reducing the risk of tripping! This brace can be easily put on, removed, and is extremely light-weight. Contact my office today and we will provide this brace for you! It involves an office visit, where your gait will be analyzed and fiberglass casts will be made of both your feet. It takes about twenty minutes for casting and the braces usually arrive in 3-4 weeks. Medicare and most insurances approve 100%. DR. HOWARD J.

You're in good hands with Dr.Tzorfas! c a s a s h a W s e e k s a d v o c a T e s Every year there are more than 100,000 reports of child abuse or neglect in NJ and more than 10,000 children are removed from their homes because the Court has found it to be too dangerous for them to remain there. Court Appointed Special Advocates of Somerset, Hunterdon and Warren Counties (CASA SHaW) recruit, screen, train and supervise community volunteers to act as advocates in court for children living in foster care. CASA volunteers are appointed by a family court judge to discover the best possible outcome for an abused or neglected child's future as well as make recommendations that support the child's current needs. Volunteers receive support and supervision from a trained social worker throughout the duration of their cases.
