Would be interested to see a breakdown of what type of falls these are. Falls in bathrooms, outside or on ice?

I can tell you from personal experience losing a lot of my mobility at a young-ish age, the bathroom is by far and away the most terrifying place for me, especially getting into and out of the shower. It was the first place I started installing safety mechanisms - wouldn't be surprised if bathroom falls are a significant percentage, and stairs.
