Many carers are concerned that the older person will fall. Three hundred ninety carers of an older person participate in this study. The study found that the carers have a high level of fall concern. The level of concern was significantly associated with the demographic variables of the older person and the level of depression, stress, anxiety, and strain. Hence, there is a dire need for a fall prevention programme and educational program for the carers.</p><p>Keywords: fall; carers; fall concerns; elderly.</p><p><em>eISSN: 2398-4287 </em><em>© 2022.
